Today, my quote comes from a saint who is more familiar to most of us: Saint Paul.
"Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love."
Be watchful: be vigilant, and aware of the devil's schemes. Be alert!
Stand firm in your faith: don't be easily swayed by the tides of change in the world.
Be courageous: don't let Satan or his forces bully you into a corner, cowering in fear.
Be strong: know that you have the mightiest Warrior of all on your side!
Let all that you do be done in love: what are your motives?
"Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love."
I Corinthians 16:13, 14 RSV
Be watchful: be vigilant, and aware of the devil's schemes. Be alert!
Stand firm in your faith: don't be easily swayed by the tides of change in the world.
Be courageous: don't let Satan or his forces bully you into a corner, cowering in fear.
Be strong: know that you have the mightiest Warrior of all on your side!
Let all that you do be done in love: what are your motives?

I'm really liking these Saint posts.
You're right - I'm much more familiar with Paul!
That verse gives all the instrustion we need...we just need to apply it to our daily living.
Love, Love, Love - we can't do wrong if we are motivated by love.
