“[He] will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.” - 1 Corinthians 1:8–9 (ESV)
Do we struggle with our inability to live the way Christ has called us? We know what we are called to do or not do but we fail, so how does that affect us? There is much that we could say but today we look at one promise in this passage. We are called by God to live according to His will. When we fail, we confess and God forgives again and again. But the promise here is that our faith and our position in our Lord Jesus Christ is sustained by Him and will continue to be sustained throughout our lives right up to the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. That is the day that Jesus comes for His church. We can trust this promise because God is faithful and He has called us into this union which cannot be broken and from which we cannot be separated. God is the one who sustains us in our fellowship with Him. That is something to think about today, isn't it?
