“STEADFAST!”
1 Corinthians 15:58
“Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord.”
When the going gets tough, the tough get going! Have you ever heard that popular expression? Do you think that is true? What about when you are not tough and confess your weakness? That is when you let go and let God be God through you!
Sometimes people fail to act because they feel they are unqualified. The fact of the matter is that many great people are not that different from anyone else. The only difference is that they remained steadfast at their task.
Thomas Edison experimented with over 10,000 substances before discovering the answer in tungsten. After 9,999 attempts, the story goes that a reporter asked him if he was going to go on after so many failures. Edison's response was that he had not had any failures. He had only discovered 9,999 substances that would not do the job.
Being steadfast for the Lord does not look at failure in the results we may see. It is in being the faithful servant that keeps on doing the work God has called each of us to do and leaving the results up to Him. Are you steadfast?
