Proverbs of a 41 yr. old man
The greatest loss is when you lose your faith. But don't worry the LORD Jesus is interceding for us at the right hand of the Father. He is pleading in prayer for you and me, that our faith should not fail. So when we have repented and turned to Him again, we can go strengthen our brothers and sisters. You see, we are suppose to grow from faith to faith. God rewards those who sincerely seek him with all of their heart. But He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood. Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. When we are faithless, Jesus remains faithful and true to His word and His righteous character, for He cannot deny Himself. Hor He is faithful and true and His Love never fails. Faithful even to the end of the age is Jesus our LORD. He who has begun a good work in you will continue to perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus the time of His return. Faith, hope, and love we will always have with us. He lives inside us, Christ the hope of glory! Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. For, “Yet a little while, and the coming one will come and will not delay; but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him.” But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and preserve their souls. Don't be like the ones on the rock who when they hear the word, receive it with joy. But these have no root; they believe for a while, and in time of testing fall away.
Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” Yes LORD, you are always near and a very present help in times of trouble. You are the strength my heart, I call it faith.
