60 Seconds of Hope: Keep On Standing
One of the blessings I have received from my faith tradition is a type of stubborn optimism that is fully grounded in the hard realities of today.
Every life is met with a certain amount of hardship and difficulty. Some lives far more than others. Injustice and inequality are pervasive and deeply rooted. Hard times are not a matter of if, but when.
In the face of these realities, the writer of Ephesians challenges us to “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.” - Ephesians 6:13
Yes, hardship is coming. Difficulties are coming. Trouble is coming. Nevertheless, we are more than well equipped to face them and none of us is facing them alone.
Therefore, we are called to stand and keep on standing.
I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope. Peace be with you.
