From today’s reading...
When people are saying,
‘Peace and security,’ then sudden disaster comes upon them,
like labor pains upon a pregnant woman,
and they will not escape.”
Stock market crashes, layoffs, heart attacks, hurricanes.
Challenging days—and the day of reckoning—”will come like a thief at night.”
Tough times will come.
The end time will come.
So prepare: physically, spiritually, emotionally, financially.
Be disciplined.
Take responsibility.
Lead by example.
Walk the walk and let your walking do your talking.
Because you are being watched, observed, studied, critiqued, and admired.
Your neighbor is impressionable, confused, exhausted, concerned.
Therefore, encourage one another and build one another up, as indeed you do.”
It’s the best way to...
Stay the course.
Keep the faith.
Endure.
