Discipleship in an Instant World: When the Going Gets Tough

This week, we look at how when the going gets tough, the tough remember the promise in James 1:12: “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.” Let us continue to find strength and encouragement as we persevere. The crown of life awaits those who remain steadfast in their faith and love for the Lord.

This Week's Scripture:
// Psalm 129 // 
A song of ascents.
‘They have greatly oppressed me from my youth,’
    let Israel say;
‘they have greatly oppressed me from my youth,
    but they have not gained the victory over me.
Ploughmen have ploughed my back
    and made their furrows long.
But the LORD is righteous;
    he has cut me free from the cords of the wicked.’

May all who hate Zion
    be turned back in shame.
May they be like grass on the roof,
    which withers before it can grow;
a reaper cannot fill his hands with it,
    nor one who gathers fill his arms.
May those who pass by not say to them,
    ‘The blessing of the LORD be on you;
    we bless you in the name of the LORD.’
