Live for Christ

Those who are prepared to die are most prepared to live.

Philippians 1:21For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

When we live for Christ we have no fears. Death is no longer your enemy, Christ has defeated death with His sacrifice on the cross. As a Christian you have the assurance that you will be with Christ on the day you leave this world. So many martyrs have had this thought going through their minds when they were told to deny Christ or die. We don't face death very often in this country because of our faith but what would we say if we were confronted with that question? Would we stand up for Christ, the one that died for us, that we may have eternal life. Or would we deny Him so we could save our temporary body's one more time. Think about this, you are put to the test everyday. You may not face life or death situations but you either deny Him or live for Him. When you act like others to fit in or to be liked by the world, are you denying Christ. If you don't tell others about Christ because how it might affect you, are you denying Christ?You either stand up for Christ or you step aside for satan, what's it going to be? Today, put your all into serving Jesus Christ, because He gave you His all!In Christ name,Dustin
