2 Chronicles 15:7 NASB "But you, be strong and do not lose courage, for there is a reward for your work."It seemed hopeless but eventually it worked out! Today we read that we are to be strong and not lose courage, then we will find the reward for our work. The fire was consuming the entire home, we kept battling the blaze but it seemed at times that every time we gained an advantage, the fire roared back. We were fighting a house fire and it seemed almost hopeless but my crew and I kept working, working harder each time we thought of giving up. When others arrived to help, we eventually put the fire out. Life will throw all kinds of things at us to try and get us to give up, but if we remain strong in the Lord, get some help from others, we can be strong and not lose courage. No matter what we face, we can see the reward for staying faithful, being strong in the Lord and keep on keeping on. Never give up, never surrender, the end is just around the corner! peace, tom
