I'm sure many of us have seen the Nike commercials with the slogan of Just Do It. What I'm suggesting today for the do not's in life are...
Don't stop praying. God answers prayers in His time.
Don't stop believing. This is vital to number the previous. Belief, to me, is the backbone of Christianity. We believe in a God we cannot touch or see.
Don't give up. When I am at a point where I don't feel like my prayers are being answered, I get out my prayer list and keep praying.
Don't hate. I know that's a tough one given the recent world events, but we are to pray for those that persecute us. It's a bit easier for me than my Christian brothers and sisters in other parts of the world, but I have read numerous accounts of the killings of Christians around the world and I am strengthened by their strength of faith.
1 Peter 3:9 Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.
I have faith and believe that as a worldwide Christian community we can change the hearts of those oppressing Christians.
Keep praying for God's intervention in this world. We can move the hand of God.
