Not alone, ever!!!!

Monday March 12th, 1 Corinthians 10: 11 These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come. 12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall! 13 No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it. Sometimes it seems as if God’s idea of what we can bear and our idea of what we can bear are miles apart. Life pushes us sometimes. When it does, at least know that you are not alone. Luther is purported as having thrown an inkwell at the devil one day and yelling, “I have been baptized.” I don’t suggest throwing inkwells, even if you could find one. But you can claim your baptism in less messy ways. Claim it. Remember your baptism in the midst of the calamities of life and hang on. You are not alone, ever!!!!
