PAUSE FOR A MOMENT - April 30

1 Corinthians 16:13
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.

As believers we are alive in Christ. We are no longer dead in our sins. We were born again by the Holy Spirit's life giving power and the old creation is gone forever, we now live in the eternal life of Christ.

Living the victorious life in a sinful world presents challenges and difficulties because we are strangers and foreigners here. We look at things with a different perspective as we seek to serve and please our Father.

Being discouraged, impatient and the temptation to give up is real because we live in a physical body and sometimes our faith grows a little dim. We are encouraged to do what it takes to guard and stand firm in our faith. It takes courage to hold on and we must be strong when we are tempted to doubt.

May our doubts never be stronger than our faith.
