Greetings sister soldier saints!
I hope you're pressing on and crucifying the flesh, submitting to the Lord's will and being patient. So much to do in this faith life to keep ourselves in check and pleasing to the Lord like we want to be. We know we must endure and keep striving unto the end!
Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
James 1:12
Thankyou for the scripture pictures sister...
Amen we do know that too! What a great blessing to know and serve the one and only true living God! We know people have made up hundreds and thousands of gods and seem to want to worship something even if it's themselves. But how thankful we are to know the truth and the way to eternal life. We love for others to find this too!
He is worthy to be praised! And we love to be His servants.
Scripture reading here for you...
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.John 4:23
I was thinking of this scripture...
And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell, which are at home at my house. And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.
Luke 9:61-62
And I know for all of us when we come to the Lord to follow Him our relationship with our earthly families/friends (and everyone really) will not be the same (unless of course if they are all true believers then it would be wonderful but reality is there's so few). Some may be physically seperated completely due to following the Lord and others we may still be in their lives but as we see from that scripture we can't be looking back at them or may need to let them go either physically or in our hearts. Sometimes we might feel bad in our flesh to move on from those we once were close to but that scripture really sets us straight and gets us moving forward not looking back at the people who refuse to repent and follow Him too.
Beautiful autumn day for working in the garden...
And I'm sure you'll rest well knowing you did your best and worked hard and the Lord gives the blessing of rest doesn't He.
I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, Lord, only makest me dwell in safety.
Psalm 4:8
Strive on sister soldiers!!
