Good morning ladies,
The word of the day is “Panglossian.” The Apostle Paul had a
pretty rough time individually after he was changed on that road to
Damascus. We see in today’s passage that
he understood the responsibility put on him as an ambassador for JC, knowing
his past life. His belief and trust in
God was very focused, and Paul realized that others should share in his
passion; but to do so they would have to first put their faith in Christ and
his ultimate return.
My friends, I want you
to remember the message that I preached and that you believed and
trusted. You will be saved by this message, if you hold firmly to it. But
if you don’t, your faith was all for nothing.” ~1 Cor 15:1-2
My question is: are
you putting your faith in JC, both on a daily basis as well as hope for
eternity? Living a Christian life is not about having an absurd Panglossian
belief that Jesus might return. It is
having true faith in the fact that our optimism is healthy and real, knowing
the God will do what it says in the scriptures. My prayer is that you take a
moment to reassure yourself about the promise in which you believe. Allow God
to strengthen your belief and resolve, both for this life and in the next.
Praying for you,
MO
