Hold your spiritual ground. Do you have the patience to wait as God prepares you to be used by Him to complete His will? Do you exhibit the endurance of Sardis in keeping God's commandments and Word?
What will we become when Jesus returns? What awaits us in faith when we rise from slumber tomorrow, or for that matter, what does the next hour have in store for us? Our faith is not something that can be calculated and God awaits around every bend with a new treasure.
We are all inclined to work for the kingdom when we are in the middle of a calling, but how do we spend our time after God has called us out, after a calling is complete, and we are waiting for God to reinsert us into his service? Is this simply a time of rest?
How do we judge what we are contributing to the kingdom of God? Are we looking at our efforts, or His, and who do we blame when we yield a disappointing effort? This is our topic for today's thought.
