Acorn Build Up: Meeting Challenges

Meeting Challenges

James 1:12 (The Message)
Anyone who meets a testing challenge head-on and manages to stick it out is mighty fortunate. For such persons loyally in love with God, the reward is life and more life.

Given the opportunity every person reading this post could likely describe a testing-challenge in their life right now. Challenges seem as common to humans as breathing. The uncommon aspect of challenges for the Christian is our loyalty to God.

The Christian, despite the present challenge, loyally remains in love with God. No matter how bad the testing becomes we should always strive to maintain our relationship with Jesus. As the challenges pass, the relationship, strengthened through weathering the testing, grows and deepens.

A deep loving relationship with God is life, and what a life it is!

Head-on into the fray!
