Built Up


“And coming to Him as to a living stone, which has been rejected by men, but is choice and precious in the sight of God, you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.”  1 Peter 2:4-5.

I love it when we are told to develop a thick skin, because we are going to be rejected.  This is great advice.  We need to stop being squishy and wishy-washy and be rock solid in our faith.  Jesus did not call us to shrink in fear, He called us to stand up and speak up.
