II Corinthians 1:2 “Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.” When Paul wrote a letter this verse was his typical introduction. He wanted everyone he wrote to to know the love and comfort which comes from knowing and having a close, faithful relationship with God. God, obviously, wants you and me to know the same blessing. To have such a relationship with Him is the greatest blessing every Christian enjoys. Enjoy being blessed!

I Corinthians 16:13 “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong. Being wishy-washy is not God’s way. Knowing His will and abiding by that will is God’s way. God’s way produces strength, contentedness, success and eternal life with our Savior for all of eternity. God, give each of us the faith to know and live by Your will.

I Corinthians 16:7c “…if the Lord permits.” God willing or If the Lord permits are identical thoughts every Christian continually has on his/her mind as life is lived. We all make plans knowing if God wants us to go in another direction–that is the direction we go. When we allow God to direct our lives we know all is well. Who would you rather have in control–you or God? Have a great weekend.

I Corinthians 15:58 “Therefore, my dear brothers, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” What an amazing verse. My dear brothers–stand firm–let nothing move you—give yourselves fully—your labor is not in vain. Each group of words is a dissertation of its own. God’s absolutes are so wise and life saving they express truths for all eternity. Total confidence in our God—TOTAL confidence in walking with our Savior is the wonderful privilege every Christian can not just enjoy, but cherishes. How wonderful it is to have such a close, loving relationship with our Heavenly Father.
