"Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses." -I Timothy 6:12 (NIV)
While we may all prefer peace and love in our lives, there are times in life that require us to "fight." Events in my life have reminded me that there are times when we may have no other choice than to fight for what is right. This was reinforced when I read the quote, "Choose the harder right than the easier wrong." We need to choose what is right, even if it leads to a "fight."
If we find ourselves in circumstances that require us to stand up and fight for what is right, we need to be sure we are on the right side, on God's side! It is good to have God as our back-up. When we trust in God and have faith in Him, we can have strength in His promises and in the eternal life that He grants to us. With God, we can hold on to our faith and be prepared for the fights in our lives and to fight for God's Kingdom!
Hold on to your faith in God and allow Him to prepare you for the fights you will face!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for all of Your promises and blessings in my life. Help me to hold on to my faith and to be prepared for any fights I face in my life. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
