"We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed ... perplexed, but not in despair ... persecuted, but not abandoned ... struck down, but not destroyed."
2 Corinthians 4:8
†††
From reading this description of God's people, we sound like a tough skinned bunch ... ready to get right back up, when falling down, ready to persevere in all circumstances!
Well, I would say that that is just about right, don't you?
We know that we are of Him ... that we do not conform to the world, but to God's promises, and His mighty Word!
We have lived long enough to know, walked long enough to know, trusted long enough to know, that He is always with us, and we do not ever fear!
I pray that this description describes each one of us, as we walk and pray and trust and believe!
We have a Sovereign God, Who created not only us, but the whole universe, and we have a Holy Spirit, Who dwells within each of us, continually leading and guiding us, always in the pathways of wisdom.
We have power, strength, and fortitude in our God, and never have to rely upon human understanding, or human strength!
Now, with having said all this, I think we should feel pretty good about ourselves ... more than able to stand up and be counted for, in His mighty army!
Do all, within your power, to restore God in America, and in all the world, making Him King over all kings!
"Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord ... the people He chose for His inheritance."
Psalm 33:12

If any of you are not walking in close relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ ... if He has been tapping you on the shoulder, but you have not yet responded ... embark upon His Holy pathway today!
