"Therefore you do not lack any spiritual gift as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed. He will also keep you firm to the end, so that you will be blameless on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ." (1 Corinthians 1:7, 8--NIV))
Sometimes commenting on Scripture is like attempting to comment on the vastness and beauty of the Universe--- impossible.
But consider: "....as you eagerly wait for our Lord Jesus Christ to be revealed....He will also keep you...blameless...." That is the "keeping" power we all need and I know I long for. And we know that only Jesus Christ can, "....keep [us]...blameless...."
Father, in Jesus' Name, I thank You for:
"Now to Him Who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy, to the Only God our Savior, Who alone is wise, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and forever. Amen." (Jude 24, 25)
When Peter, an 18 year old Norwegian, "heard the call to evangelize China, on that day he not only emptied his wallet into the collection plate, but included a small note with the words, 'and my life.'"
Hebrews 12:2
