Stand Fast

October 30, 2012

As I waited to make a right-hand turn at a busy intersection, an ambulance appeared over the crest of a hill, speeding in my direction. Someone behind me honked, urging me into the crossroads. I knew the ambulance would be unlikely to stop and that it could have been disastrous to make my turn. So I kept my foot on the brake pedal and stayed put.

Spiritually speaking, we need to “stay put” and remain faithful to God despite pressure from others. King Solomon had to learn this the hard way. He began his reign by asking God for wisdom (1 Kings 3:9), and his prayer at the dedication of the temple revealed his loyalty (8:23,61). But he did not remain committed. He married many foreign women who eventually influenced him to worship other gods. By the end of his life, his “heart was not loyal to the Lord” (11:1-6; Neh. 13:26).

Today, just as in ancient times, people may prompt us to shift our loyalty away from God and His truth. Yet with God’s help we can hold fast to the word of life (Phil. 2:16). If you feel pressured to enter a dangerous intersection of beliefs, study God’s Word, put on His armor (Eph. 6:10-18), and ask the Holy Spirit for help (1 Cor. 2:10-12). Then stand fast with your fellow believers in Christ.

Stand up, stand up for Jesus,
Stand in His strength alone;
The arm of flesh will fail you—
Ye dare not trust your own. —Duffield
To avoid being pulled into error, keep a firm grip on the truth.

Read: 1 Kings 11:1-13

Shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life. —Philippians 2:15-16
Bible in a Year:
Luke 14-17

Great road trip, Lauren! (((hugs)))

I’m itchin’ for a real road trip! How are your boys and their
families faring through this storm? I pray that they are safe and dry! And the boat survives. It seems that the USS Bounty did not. :(

TIME FOR THE

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

military, our allies, and their families

Thank you, Lauren, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.

DC Metroland Weather

~ Today... Windy with rain likely. High near 45F.
Winds SW at 25 to 35 mph.
Additional rainfall possibly over one inch.
Winds could occasionally gust over 50 mph.

~ Tonight...Windy.
Rain showers early becoming less numerous overnight.
Low 41F. Winds SW at 15 to 25 mph.
Chance of rain 60%.

Today is a good day to go west.
but will have to drive as all the flights are just starting back up
and are way behind schedule.

At home again today. Still raining but wind has calmed down a lot.
Thanks be to God that we didn't lose power and
hubby didn't have to go out in that mess and
start the generator.

Interesting thing this morning, saw a salt truck go by.
I know it's cold here but didn't think enough to form ice.
Maybe they're using the trucks for something else.

Looking at the local weather report it seems
we're in for another rainy day.

I'm thinking I'll use free day to do some writing.

Guess I'll get to my rounds.
Need to find out about the FReepers north of us.
Please stay.

The FR Canteen is

Come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes,
conversation,
silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above Honoring those who have served before.
