Keep on

Silverton to Durango

If you find life difficult because you're doing what God said, take it in stride. Trust him. He knows what he's doing, and he'll keep on doing it.

Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying.

You are My friends if you keep on doing the things which I command you to do.

I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding.

What I'm getting at, friends, is that you should simply keep on doing what you've done from the beginning. When I was living among you, you lived in responsive obedience. Now that I'm separated from you, keep it up. Better yet, redouble your efforts. Be energetic in your life of salvation, reverent and sensitive before God. That energy is God's energy, an energy deep within you, God himself willing and working at what will give him the most pleasure.

I can't impress this on you too strongly. God is looking over your shoulder. Christ himself is the Judge, with the final say on everyone, living and dead. He is about to break into the open with his rule, so proclaim the Message with intensity; keep on your watch. Challenge, warn, and urge your people. Don't ever quit. Just keep it simple.

1 Peter 4:17 Romans 12:12 John 15:14 Philippians 1:9 Philippians 2:12 2 Timothy 4:1

To the wise, God’s Word is sufficient.
