—2 Corinthians 6:1-10
by: Gabrielle Watt.
God has called, equipped, and commissioned us as believers for ministry. That does not mean that we are exempt from the calamities that come from being in that kind of service. Paul emphasized that despite our hardships, it is important remain focused on the assignment we have been called to fulfill. Our ability to remain faithful is a direct testament to the fact that “God’s power is working in us” (v.7b, NLT). Our commitment to this work in which we are enlisted should not be contingent on the actions or reactions of others—for the attacks will come—but solely on God’s calling on our lives.
