True Victory
This is the victory that has overcome the world-our faith.
1 John 5:4
When life sends us reeling in pain and confusion, our response
to our struggles will reveal how mature we are in our relationship
with Christ. Of course, what He desires to see is our unshakeable
trust in Him, regardless of what happens. That is the measure of
true victory-our unwavering faith. We realize that as children of
our sovereign God, we are never victims of our circumstances. He
is in control and will ultimately use whatever touches our lives for
our good and His glory.
This is the goal. However, it's easier said than done. And if we
drift in our devotion to God, the tragic events that unfold can leave
us jaded.
Friend, don't allow the storms in your lifeĀ to discourage
you; rather, cling to the Lord and invite Him to fill you with His
strength and hope. Hold tightly to Him and to promises He's
given you-no matter what the cost or how circumstances appear.
Have faith to the end. Because you know that with God, you'll be
able to endure anything that comes your way in life and emerge
triumphant.
Lord, I cling to Your promise that You
will prevail on my behalf, amen.
