Let Your Faith Endure

From the heart of Nicki Hausman- Prayer Team Member & Transformed Women's Leadership Team

Everyday we see families in sorrow, communities in conflict, and the real life struggle just to survive. The trials of humanity cross every nationality and cultural boundary. No one is spared life's tribulations. This can cause us to lose hope and think nothing will ever change.

But...there is HOPE! There is a God in heaven Who is very much involved and is weaving each one of our stories into His Story. We CAN endure by faith and obedience.

Read Hebrews 11-13 today. Your faith will be energized. You will be encouraged at the real life situations recorded throughout the pages of scripture.

Hebrews 12:1-2 (AMP), "Therefore then, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses [who have borne testimony to the Truth], let us strip off and throw aside every encumbrance (unnecessary weight) and that sin which so readily (deftly and cleverly) clings to and entangles us, and let us run with patient endurance and steady and active persistence the appointed course of the race that is set before us, 2 Looking away [from all that will distract] to Jesus, Who is the Leader and the Source of our faith [giving the first incentive for our belief] and is also its Finisher [bringing it to maturity and perfection]. He, for the joy [of obtaining the prize] that was set before Him, endured the cross, despising and ignoring the shame, and is now seated at the right hand of the throne of God."

Endure the cross you bear today because change IS coming. Know the Joy of your life will return. God keeps His promises.

Have faith, weary traveler...
