Title: When the time shall come, can you say "I fought the good fight"?

-
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.
Devotional Thought: When Saul, later known as Paul, converted from Judaism to Christianity, he remained resolute in his faith despite facing persecution, imprisonment, snake bites, and shipwrecks. He never looked back, and this steadfastness enabled him to encourage Timothy to remain firm in Christ.
Remember when we first surrendered our lives to Christ? We were filled with enthusiasm and eagerness to learn more about Him. We attended Bible classes, prayer sessions, and even went on mission trips to share God's Word. However, as time passed, the fervor of many began to wane. Life's struggles and challenges dampened their spirits. Pride took hold of some, making them reluctant to preach in villages again. Sadly, others have completely backslidden and now worship other gods.
Paul's example inspires us to stand strong in Christ until the very end. Will we follow his lead and remain steadfast, proudly declaring, 'I have fought the good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith'? Let us commit to serving God joyfully until the end.
May God bless you as you read this devotional. Feel free to share it with others.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
