fightingThe good fight.
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I
have kept the faith:
(2 Timothy 4:7)
I keep this verse in my mind and my heart with great affection, quoted by my dear father before God made the sky for him as his eternal abode. My heart was saddened by the loss and
longing, but in my heart, I was comforted because I know that one day
meet in heaven, because he "fought the good fight, finished the race, but kept the faith", and so he moved to heaven, where he was receiving the "incorruptible crown of glory that the Lord, the righteous Judge, has in store for those who love His second coming." From that day on I decided to put this
verse in my day to day, and be an example of a soldier of Christ so that I
too can finish my day with the feeling of accomplishment, having reached the end of combat and full of faith, as did
my dear father inhis last days.
God makes us want to achieve things better, only a few
will struggle mightily to get them, those
who continue, despite problems,
pain and difficulties, will ultimately win.
All of us without exception are soldiers of the Army of God
the outside world also has its soldiers, but the fight for such
earthly things, always gleaming rewards such as status,
congratulations and high patent. But the soldiers of Christ fight hard for things eternal, as we wrestle not against flesh and
blood, but against principalities and powers. As a good example
of a soldier we have Paul, a great man of God that we
meditate on this text is in its last moments of life,
but declared himself as a good soldier of Christ,
Being a Christian is not easy. At any stage of life. I remember as a child thought to remain faithful to
God would be difficult in each phase. Today, I am fully
convinced that it does not matter. In any event there will be
difficulties. At any time our faith will be questioned, and we have
to choose whether you really want to follow God. We can even lay aside secular goals, we plan along our path, but nothing is
better than Christ has in store for us. Nothing is more gratifying
than the dreams he has for each one who fears him and the guard.
he knew that his days are ended, was trapped, suffering deprivation, humiliation, he
understood that being a soldier was to be ready for the
victories, but also for the apparent defeats, every soldier
must understand some situations we will face in the
Christian life some point, which I would share with you.
This shows, that from the first until the last days of the end of the earthly
career of the Christian, he should prepare for
FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT.
Probably during his life, not more than moments or periods of time that
can choke out the day-to-day, for some relief in breathing, a recovery of breath, an energy supplies, and then resume the Contest . Fighting forever. Since rises during times of
daily toil, and when he goes to rest at night. But even here, in many
situations we all known, even while you sleep or dream continues
FIGHTING THE GOOD FIGHT.
Our life is like a battlefield, and we know how a battle is not easy! More what's your reaction to a fight? You are
one of those valiant soldiers? Or those, fear? That in the
first ever hiding in a hole just to not face the battle chest to chest? If you are that brave, Congratulations! That means for you is win-win! It means
you're a Brave as Paul was!
So choose Jesus. In your life there will be constant trials, you will fall down
and cry. But no tears will be more valuable than
what we see in the glorious morning. He can help you fight the good
fight and be faithful unto eternity. Rest assured,
it's worth.
Which in the end our journey here, we can say like Paul
"FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT, JUST A CAREER,Kept the faith “
(II Timothy 4:7).
Do not retreat, accomplish the mission that God gave you.
