Stand Firm in Christ!

Today's youth are longing for role models in every walk of life. St Paul is exhorting the community of the Philippines to set their eyes on persons of example. One can present oneself as an excellent person but to set an example in faith and life is difficult. Parents are the best role models. They may not have the best education, but they have the wisdom, love and sacrifice of the parents. Everyone should set an example of faith in God. A life of faith has to be manifested and witnessed.

We are citizens of heaven. We are not just matter and body. Let's not set our end for destruction, making our belly as God and our shame as glory. Let us look forward to transcending this earthly life into a glorious life that awaits us. For St Paul, and the community looks for joy and crown and to stand firm in Jesus Christ.

Do we stand firm in Jesus?
