HOPE & TRUTH

Hope & Truth

CD Swanson

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:32-33 (KJV)

Harsh language that proceeds from the mouths of speakers can most definitely corrupt minds and the behavior of those who hear. 

In this sense, Christians should be keenly aware, and "beware" of all such dialogue and encounters.

As a Christian, it's our inherent duty to seek the Kingdom, the face of God, and His blessings. 

We are also called to love, encourage, and build one another up in the faith as representatives of the body of Christ.

With the Coronavirus crisis, at times, the stress may lead us to lose sight of our call to love others, leading us to act more like we are still of the world than of Christ. 

Unfortunately, we can become a hindrance to our own faith and that of others, when we allow "the world" to creep in. 

The solution is to look to God for our wisdom, strength, and guidance. 

In stressful situations, stop and think of Jesus and how he'd handle it. 

Look to Him to solve, lead, and direct.

As we meditate on His Word, kneel in prayer, and run to Jesus, we will experience His strength to endure. 

He will never leave us nor forsake us, and His promises never fade, or expire! 

Let's do our best to do all things unto Christ and be strong and courageous for He is with us, always.

In the cloud of darkness, shines His bright Light of truth. Look just beyond the horizon, don't you see His light shining in the darkness!

"Father God, may I always be an example of Christ in all that I say and do, thank You for the Comforter and guidance of the Spirit, Your light is what I seek this day and always, in Jesus precious name, Amen."
