"Be careful - watch out for attacks from Satan, your great enemy. He prowls around like a hungry, roaring lion, looking for some victim to tear apart. Stand firm when he attacks. Trust the Lord and remember that other Christians all around the world are going through these sufferings, too."
1 Peter 5: 8&9
Imagine standing firm when a hungry, roaring lion attacks! How scary! Yet, that is the kind of stalwart trust God deserves and requires because we can do all things through Christ who gives us the strength. This verse doesn't say IF our enemy attacks, it says WHEN. It is a comfort to know Christians around the globe are met with these same challenges. We must stand firm, together, until the day we will receive the crown of life. Amen.
