Counter-cultural

Wednesday May 7th, 1 Peter 4: 8 Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings. 10 And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. Being a counter-cultural Christian is not easy. There are constant temptations we all succumb to, having said that, there are also moments every once in a while when the kingdom shines through. Rejoice, and ground yourself in the word each day for the many encounters with the kingdom that lay ahead.
