2 Timothy 4:7

I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:

• Perseverance
• Faith
• Endurance
• Victory
• Strength

Is there ever a time when you feel that you fought a good fight and survived something so hard? Do you remember a time when you felt so satisfied with your achievement that you could say you had done well? Can you envision yourself looking back one day and saying that you have lived a wonderful life? In the final days of Paul's life, he could confidently say that he had remained faithful to his calling. As a result, he could face death calmly, knowing that he would be rewarded by Christ. The same reward is available to us as well! 
Christians have three duties to fulfill: (1) participate in spiritual warfare; (2) finish the heavenly course; and (3) stand firm in the faith. Paul gave these words to encourage Timothy and us so that no matter how difficult the fight seems, we can keep fighting. When we are with Christ, everything we experience for Christ's sake - abuse, discouragement, or persecution, is worth it. Let's live each day in light of eternity and fight the good fight of our faith. God will reward us for our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ!
