"Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong."  

1 Corinthians 16:13

Living in a world that contradicts all we are, the child of God must be resilient.  Even though God is able to make everything work out for good, not everything is good, there are many challenges and disappointments that we will face.  To live victorious we must be resilient!  We must hold tight to a "nerve quit" attitude!  The child of God should count themselves as "up" or as "getting up", but we must never count ourselves as "down"!  That's a resilient attitude!  I'm up or I'm getting up, but I'm never down!  Life's not easy, but if we carry around the right attitude by the power of the Holy Spirit we will live lives of victory no matter what comes our way!  Be resilient!!!

"Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:13-13
