No Slackers!

"We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, so that what you hope for may be fully realized.  We do not want you to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised." -Hebrews 6:11-12 (NIV)
It's that time of year at school: the weather is warm and the end is near!  The end of the school year is just weeks away and some students begin to get lazy, thinking there isn't anything left to learn or work to be done.  As their teacher, I must keep their attention and keep them focused on all that is left to accomplish.

Just like students in the classroom near the end of the school year, we may have points in our spiritual journey when we feel lazy or spiritually sluggish.  When we reach these points in our journey, we need to look to those that came before us.  We can read the Bible to learn how others have persevered, held onto the Hope that God gives us through faith in Jesus, and prayerfully talk to God about the plans He has for each of us.  In the end we can imitate the faithful examples of others and proceed with faith and patience toward the promises of God!

Don't be a spiritual slacker!  Hold onto the promises of God and keep moving and growing in faith!

Prayer:
Dear God-

Thank You for giving me hope through the sacrifice of Your Son.  Help me to hold onto my faith in You and to continue to patiently move toward Your promises as those before me have done.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
