"And the rain descended,and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house;and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock" [Matthew 7:25].
Life is full of challenges. These challenges may come in the form of trials, temptations, distress, failures, etc. They are sometimes likened to the storms of life. Sometimes the effects are devastating. We therefore need someone in the name of Jesus who has the capacity to support us at all times. In [Matthew 14:24 - 33], Peter had the privilege of walking on the sea on bidding of Jesus, but when he was faced with turbulent wind, he lost faith and began to sink. Quickly he cried to Jesus for help and He got him out. Jesus is always ready to render assistance to all Christians that are passing through the storms of life.
Some Challenges Christians pass through
Challenges of Christians can be grouped under spiritual, financial, academic, social and others. These can be further classified as trials, persecution, distress, financial difficulties, and so on. At times, the challenge may be overwhelming. Fixing eyes on the problem will compound the situation. Just like d story I gave above, Peter started sinking only when his eyes were on the boisterous wind. It is pertinent to understand that our Lord Jesus has solution to every situation.
How to maintain focus and faith in Christ
It is good to have access to something, but it is better to know how to maintain it.
It is good to have access to something, but it is better to know how to maintain it.
Our faith in Christ can easily be maintained by remaining attached to Christ. Every moment we stand in need of Christ: while we stand - we are upheld by his power only; and when we are falling, or have fallen, we can be saved only by his mercy.
Thanks for stopping by.
Amen
