You can either look at it one way or another. Either you see it as this or that. One event can happen to two different people, one will look at it as good the other as not.
“Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.” Revelation 14:12
Patience. Faith. Obedience.
It’s going down in chapter 14. We can only imagine as we read what this will actually look like. It will be tough. Things may be tough for you right now. Maybe, you are thinking, “how could anything be worse?” We’ve never been told it would be easy, but we have been told we can run to Jesus when they are. Nothing about patience, faith, or obedience are easy. This is why we run to Him. Some will run from Him, others will run to Him. Same event… different decision. Choose today whether it’s tough or not. Then when it gets even more tough you will have already made the decision to be patient, faithful, and obedient.
