My Joy and Crown

Philippians 4:1

“Therefore, my beloved and longed-for brethren, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved.”

We need encouragement as we walk through this life of faith.  There are many valleys we must trudge through, and mountains to climb.  Paul the apostle encouraged the saints to stand fast in the Lord.  

We often try to stand in our own strength and depend on our own might and intelligence.  The key to victory is standing in God’s strength and not our own.  He has paid the price for us so that we can rest in Him.
