Strong

Strong and steadfast in faith. 

What can that mean? 

Strong and Steadfast in our faith! 

It can be the one who is firmly rooted or planted. It’s a firm grit and solid determination that’s covered in stability and humility. 

1 Peter 1:6-7 reminds us to greatly rejoice even though there may be a refining process at the time. It’s in the storms of life wheee one can ask for the Lord to give them a heart of praise and thankfulness. 

It’s the one who remains steadfast and immovable; loyal in their faith. 

God calls us to a personal relationship with Him, and it’s one that is unchanged by the winds of time. It’s the seed planted deeply in the rich soil of life that takes deep root. 

In a world that’s ever changing with each new season, we’re like the leaf that falls to the ground and grows into a beautiful mighty tree. When the winds of culture, hardship, or temptation come, it’s these deep roots that ensure us to be anchored in the unchanging nature of Christ. 

Be a strong and steadfast believer, holding onto to faith and offering hope when and where it’s needed. 

May God continue to shine in your life as you read these words. 

(“Numbers 6:24-26 “The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you And give you peace.”) Blessings.
