TODAY, December 13 - Be Strong in Christ

Be Strong in Christ

Have you ever felt strong in this life?
When everything was running smoothly, you're successful, and the condition was fine?
I've been through that before.

And, have you ever felt so weak?
When everything you do seems in vain.
While so many problems seem attacking you at the same time?
I've been there as well.
In these moments, then we realized, without God we're nobody.
But God will be able to give us strength in going through everything patiently.
So, my dear friend, let's be strong in Christ.
He will give His strength for those who really count on Him.

You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
--- 2 Timothy 2:1

Jadilah Kuat di Dalam Kristus

Pernah merasa kuat dalam menjalani kehidupan ini?
Saat semuanya lancar, sukses, dan keadaan baik-baik saja?
Saya pernah.

Lalu, pernah juga merasa begitu lemah?
Saat segala usaha yang dilakukan seolah sia-sia.
Saat begitu banyak permasalahan seolah menyerang dalam waktu yang sama?
Saya pun pernah.
Di saat itulah, mungkin baru kita sadari, tanpa Tuhan kita bukan siapa-siapa.
Namun, Tuhan mampu memberikan kita kekuatan untuk menjalani semuanya dengan tabah.
Mari, sahabat, jadilah kuat di dalam Kristus.
Dia akan menganugerahkan kekuatan bagi mereka yang sungguh-sungguh mengandalkan-Nya.

Sebab itu, hai anakku, jadilah kuat  oleh kasih karunia dalam Kristus Yesus. 
--- 2 Timotius 2:1
