Grace and peace to you,

"For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to live in such harmony with one another, in accord with Christ Jesus, that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God" Romans 15:4-7ESV


Are you the one in need of encouragement this morning?  Then reread that passage up there. Do you see that your God is a persevering and encouraging God and He wants the same for you. As well as a life of harmony with His faithful followers. Find some sincere Christ loving brothers or sisters and spend time with them seeking to glorify God together. Learn how to welcome other believers into your lives, just as Christ welcomed you into His family. The body of Christ stands strongest when we stand together working side by side for the joy of one another's faith.

The only hope any of us has, in a sure future, is in the present living truth of the Word of God. Follow in His foot steps today and use His Word to encourage a struggling friend to persevere through their troubles. 

For the encouragement and perseverance of your Faith,
Teagan
