MEDITATION
The Indispensable Forces
1 Thessalonians 1:3 "Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father."kjvlite
Point to ponder on: Our work is produced by faith, our labour is prompted by love and our endurance is inspired by hope in the Lord Jesus Christ.
There are three forces human beings cannot live without. Apostle Paul mentions these forces to the Corinthians.(1Cor.13:13) Absolutely, every soul on the planet requires these forces to live life to the fullest. Achievement and fulfilment in life are possible when these three forces are at work. Whether in the "Ups' or "Downs of life, our souls need these forces to thrive. What gives a man confidence to live in the topmost floor of a three story building without fear of collapse is faith. The reason we keep up with life in the face of austerity, insecurity and helplessness is hope, the reason why we stay together despite our different odds is love(whether human or divine). We all combine these forces each day to keep moving and chasing our dreams. Whether you have success or failure these three forces combined are the driving force of our souls. Faith, love and hope are indispensable. Living for God, we may not realise it but when we take note of our activities, they are interlocking with faith, love and hope. We keep working hard for progress and even when our efforts aren't equal to the anticipated results, the driving force is faith. As believers in Christ, we work, labour and endure different situations in life all for Christ's sake. This is possible because of faith, love and hope in the Lord Jesus Christ.
If we must see many brighter days we must be driven by these three forces: faith, love and hope.
Good morning. Enjoy a fulfilling day.
I celebrate you.
David, Johnson
