Tough Times

Encouragment for living in tough times

2 Peter 3:14-18

3:14 Therefore, dear friends, since you are waiting for these things (annie's note: Christ to return and establish the new heaven and earth), strive to be found at peace, without spot or blemish, when you come into his presence. 3:15 And regard the patience of our Lord as salvation, just as also our dear brother Paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him, 3:16 speaking of these things in all his letters. Some things in these letters are hard to understand, things the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they also do to the rest of the scriptures. 3:17 Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard that you do not get led astray by the error of these unprincipled men and fall from your firm grasp on the truth. 3:18 But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the honor both now and on that eternal day.

The way we keep from living in fear about today or being led astray by the world is to grow in our knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus! Read the word today. Ask God to reveal himself to you.
