       King Solomon has told us, “Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life” (Proverbs 4:23, ESV). We shouldn't procrastinate, kicking the can down the road. When leave this world and stand before God on our great Judgment day (at the Bema Seat of Christ), hopefully we will be able to look back and know that we stayed determined toward our work for God. It will feel good when we know that we kept our faith, that we were bold, and did the right things for God. We don't want to find ourselves like the man in the Parable of the Talents who went out and buried his talent in the the field because he was afraid (see Matthew 25). We want to multiply our talents like the good stewards in the parable. And the only way we are going to accomplish this in our lives, is if we keep our determination. The Apostle Peter has told us, “And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen” (1 Peter 5:10-11, ESV).
