Stand

""Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.""

This scripture and song has been on my mind. Perhaps this will encourage someone else.

"Having done all ... stand." We won't always be on the mountaintops, rejoicing in victory. There are times when we will go through the valley and walk through shadows. We will experience trials and tears. We may feel all alone, even with a crowd of friends or family. At times we may even question our faith or whether God hears our prayers. Even Jesus felt alone and forsaken in the Garden.

But after we've done all to be covered in the armor of God, we must stand.

When you can't speak words, because your pain or grief and tears are overwhelming ... STAND.
In the trials and tears ... STAND.
When family or friends turn their backs on you ... STAND.
When ministry hurts you ... STAND.
When loneliness envelopes you ... STAND.
When you feel like you've failed too many times ... STAND.
When you wonder if God still hears your prayers ... STAND.

Just. Stand. Don't ever give up. Don't ever give in. Fight with everything you have, to stand, in spite of whatever comes your way.

Stand.
