A recent Sunday School lesson offered some valuable insights worth remembering.
A young man, Allan Richards, shared a thought that struck a chord with me:
"You will fall to your highest level of preparation."
As a project manager, that resonates deeply. I spend my days preparing—vacations, work projects, menus, kids’ clothing, day trips, groceries. Planning is second nature. But it made me pause and ask: How much preparation do I put into my spiritual life? That’s something worth considering.
Sis. Vernella added,
"Depending on how prepared we are with our faith, we will be more prepared for life’s challenges."
Her words reminded me that spiritual readiness isn’t just about belief—it’s about resilience.
Julie Swain offered a sobering reminder:
"Remember, there is a devil trying to destroy us, so we need God's help."
We can’t face life’s battles alone. Our relationship with God is what equips us to endure and overcome.
Let’s be mindful of our need before God, and intentional about preparing our hearts, not just our calendars.
