I am glad Christ is coming! But how can I know I will not fail him when He calls us?
I am trying to get on my feet again, but yet I am frightened whether or not that I will be with him in Heaven or not. Last March, I was baptized, so I know I am His child but...sometimes I just feel...all over the place.
I think that is a very common concern we as Christian have. "Are we trying good enough to follow His commands to show our love for Him?" There is another question we should ask ourselves - would we even care if we are not made capable of caring? Doesn't that prove in a sense that we are on the right path?
Obedience, submitting to the Spirit and putting on the full armor of God. That is how you will be able to stand. ^^
Ephesians 6:10-18
The Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.
