Sustaining our faithfulness in an ever-changing world

Life serves us uncertainties, setbacks, chaos and confusion on its daily platter each day. Faith in God allows us to find purpose and direction using those hurdles to navigate ourselves in and through life and rise above each challenges confidently and triumphantly.

Being patient teaches us self-control to respond to these challenges mindfully, be resilient and to competently thrive through each climactic seasons of life .

Faith helps us to be hopeful to live in expectation of the desired outcome and not be dissuaded and confused by the ever-changing scenes of the world but rather be creative and seek ways of mastering the art of being the overcomer.

Remembering the goodness of God in the past, present and future produces a calming effect on the mental, emotional and spiritual health. God the Creator of Heaven and Earth is in control. Therefore, love for God drives out fear within us. Instead of fear, trust, hope and faith will be nurtured within our hearts and reflected in our thoughts and conduct towards self and others.

We have  the Blessed Assurance that no matter what – whether good or bad all things will work together for good. This teaches us how to be flexible, adaptable, self-aware and practice consistency in our daily life. Man is created by God with the highest intelligence out of all His creations. Day and Night follows a consistent pattern so should man reflect the image of their creator. God has made us with freedom of choice to serve.

We are not able to  control external forces around us but we can control our responses within an ever-changing environment. 

Faith in God gives victory to overcome the world.
