Be Encouraged!

Hebrews 6: 9-12,
Even though we speak like this, dear friends, we are confident of better things in your case-things that accompany salvation. God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure. We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.

The commentary in my Bible sums this up so well: "It's easy to get discouraged, thinking that God has forgotten us. But God is never unjust. He never forgets or overlooks our hard work for him. Presently you may not be receiving rewards and acclaim, but God knows your efforts of love and ministry. Let God's love for you and his intimate knowledge of your service for him bolster you as you face disappointment and rejection here on earth." Life Application NIV

Dear Jesus we are so unworthy of this kind of love. Thank you for a love that knew no limits. A love that did not quit when pain and disappointment came. I pray for us as brothers and sisters in Christ that you will fill us with endurance, hope, faith and love to fulfill the purposes and callings that you have for each of our lives. I pray that we will glorify your name knowing that what is unseen is sometimes the biggest victory of all. I love you Jesus. Amen.

I would love to hear from you:
