Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine,
Exodus 19:5 NIV
For the appeal we make does not spring from error or impure motives, nor are we trying to trick you. On the contrary, we speak as those approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please people but God, who tests our hearts.
1 Thessalonians 2:3-4 NIV
Following Christ is not the end of troubled times as we like to look at it, but in a very true sense it is coming to an acceptance of the situation knowing fully that God is navigating the course of this journey. And along this journey there will be many roads that lead to the world's sense of Abundant life, the key is in, not getting tricked into taking a detour or a shortcut, but persisting in obedience, for it is through obedience that Christ accepted the Cross and resisted every trial and temptation that came along the way.
I pray that God our Father pours out his love on you making you obedient like His Son Jesus, to his calling for you and may His Holy Spirit always strengthen your conviction to answer the call.
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
