The Triumphant Stance for Stressful Times
Robert Walker
I Peter 1:8
Winston Churchill stood before the Parliament and said, "You ask me our plan when World War II was raging and the United States wasn't involved in the war yet and England was taking a beating and the B2 rockets were literally tearing that country apart.

And I offer you nothing less than blood and sweat and tears and that message brought England together and stood as one man and their mottos was never give up, never give up, and never give up.
The whole point of knowing Jesus Christ is it doesn't matter what the circumstances are; it doesn't matter what the situation is; it doesn't matter what the headlines are; it doesn't matter what the 6 o'clock new is; it doesn't matter what the crisis all over the world is; it doesn't matter about the energy crisis and the cost of oil; it doesn't matter about the inflation rate; it does matter about pollution; it doesn't matter about wars and rumors of wars.

So in Him we have found a joy that is unspeakable and full of glory.
