Thought for the day (Rev. 2, 3)

“Hold on to what you have until I come.” –Rev. 2:25
“Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.” Rev. 3:11

Some are wandering, and for them there is a different word. But what if you are on track, following God? Hold on.

Why does it happen that some wander? I don’t think it starts out intentionally. We don’t consciously plan to walk away from God. Maybe it starts out with looking for a little fun or even romance within the wrong company; an effort to try new things outside of His leading; an attempt to be more tolerant and expand our worldview.

Just wait, be patient and hold on. To what? To your family in Christ; to what you know; to your values and the boundaries that you have set; to the time you spend with God. If you believe what is written in the Word, then you have what you need. So hold on to it.
