"...but the just shall live by faith."
Habakkuk 2:4
I do not know what tomorrow may bring...
Habakkuk 2:4
I do not know what tomorrow may bring...
I have no idea what will happen to me in the days ahead. But this I do believe, that those who know Jesus Christ as their Savior and Lord must always be careful to walk by faith and not by what we see around us. And if we stay faithful to Jesus and avoid practicing sin, we will have a continual feast of light and peace.
Therefore, as the New Year begins, I want to keep my heart fixed upon God. I long to always please Him. However, this is by no means a New Year's resolution. I don't believe in making them. But I do want to keep living by faith in the Son of God.
Furthermore, I need to become stronger in my stand against temptations because my flesh, apart from God's grace, is very weak. If I'm not careful, my mind can wander far and wide. I don't want lustful thoughts to win out or keep me from the prize. Thus, with faith in my heart I press forward. This is going to be a good year. I know it.
