| Dear Young Christian: |
| Some of the best lessons I have learned in my Christian life, and some of the best examples and role models I have had in my experience as a believer have been older sisters in Christ. |
| The other day at a Bible conference, one of these sisters leaned over to me just before the meetings were to start, and reminded me, “Remember, without the Lord we can do absolutely nothing.” |
| For this simple but timely reminder, I was very thankful, and I want to pass it along to each of my readers at the beginning of another busy week. If you go forth with a very real sense of dependence on the Lord, you will have a happy, fruitful week. Not necessarily an easy or stress-free week, but one in which you can count on the Lord for every situation, and overcome, even in the face of opposition and adversity. Remember the words of the Apostle Paul, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me” (Philippians 4:13). |
