When Life Challenges

We know how challenging life can be as a Christian - wanting to please God and live for Him in a world that is constantly trying to draw you away.


No matter what circumstances you are facing, it's better to face them with God on your side than trying to face them on your own. Today my prayer is that you will remain steadfast in your faith.


Colossians 2:5 says, “For though I am absent in the flesh, yet I am with you in spirit, rejoicing to see your good order and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ."


Paul was reminding us to remain steadfast in our faith so that we would be able to live a life pleasing to God, filled with the strength of God ready to handle everyday life.


How do you remain steadfast?

- Everyday, spending time reading the Word - you can't live what you don't know.


- Everyday, spend time in Prayer - tell God what's going on. Share your fears, your concerns, your hopes and dreams. He promises to hear you when you pray.


- Always look for opportunities to give. Giving tithes & offerings is the minimum for a disciple of Christ, but we also should be looking for opportunities to give to our fellow man. Who can you encourage? Who can you help in some small way? Who can you pray for?


We want you to know that we believe in you and no matter what you're facing - remember, "The Best is Yet to Come!"
