Today the pace of life is frenetic and most of what rushes at you isn’t good. We’re constantly bombarded with messages that are contrary to God’s Word, stand for God’s way and you end up feeling downright pelted. Paul gave Timothy some advice that is pretty timely for us today, he said “holding on to faith and a good conscience. Some have rejected these and so have shipwrecked their faith.” (1 Ti. 1:19) Hold on tight to your faith and to your conscience, let go and you’ll end up shipwrecked on the rocks. So hang on tight to the truth of God’s Word and keep a tight rein on yourself in the process. Do so and you’ll be not only able to stand against the current but make headway as well.
