Day 6: Stand
"...I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand..."
Read: Luke 22:32, Ether 12:4
Consider: Standing as a witness of Christ not only strengthens you, it strengthens those around you.
The Journey:
- When you see the battle against sin raging, where do you see yourself in the fight?
- In your role as a friend, a son, a daughter, in your church calling, do you give some, or do you give all?
- Find a way to STRENGTHEN someone today.
"Standing obedient and strong on the doctrine of our God, we stand in holy places, for His doctrine is sacred and will not change in the social and political winds of our day. I declare, as did the Apostle Paul, 'Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, [behave] like men, [and] be strong."
Elder Robert D. Hales
"As we go about living from day to day, it is almost inevitable that our faith will be challenged. We may at times fine ourselves surrounded by others and yet STANDING in the minority or even STANDING alone concerning what is acceptable and what is not. Do we have the moral courage to STAND firm for our beliefs, even if by so doing we must STAND alone?"
President Thomas S. Monson
"May we ever be courageous and prepared to STAND for what we believe, and if we must STAND alone in the process, may we do so courageously, strengthened by the knowledge that in reality we are never alone when we stand with our Father in Heaven."
President Thomas S. Monson
