Be Strong and Courageous<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

In the book of Joshua, we’re being reminded by this verse to stay strong and courageous.<\/span><\/p>\n

Whatever happens in our life, let’s cling on to God.<\/span><\/p>\n

God will be with us wherever we go.<\/span><\/p>\n

Maybe it’s easy to do this when things run smoothly without any significant problem.<\/span><\/p>\n

But, it’s quite frequent that we need to face unpredictable hardships.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s come back to the Lord, ask Him for strength and courage to walk in this life.<\/span><\/p>\n

(-fon-)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.<\/span><\/p>\n

— Joshua 1:9<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kuatkan dan Teguhkan Hati<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Dalam Kitab Yosua, kita kembali diingatkan oleh ayat ini untuk tetap kuat dan meneguhkan hati.<\/span><\/p>\n

Apa pun yang terjadi, mari kembali bersandar kepada Tuhan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Allah selalu menyertai kita ke mana pun kita pergi.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mungkin hal ini mudah untuk dilaksanakan, ketika keadaan baik tanpa masalah yang berarti.<\/span><\/p>\n

Namun, sering kali, kita harus menghadapi keadaan sulit yang tak pernah kita bisa duga datangnya.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kembalilah kepada Tuhan, mohon kekuatan dan keteguhan hati untuk berjalan dalam hidup ini.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bersama Tuhan kita melangkah di dalam iman.<\/span><\/p>\n

(-fon-)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bukankah telah Kuperintahkan kepadamu: kuatkan dan teguhkanlah hatimu? Janganlah kecut\u00a0\u00a0dan tawar hati,\u00a0\u00a0sebab TUHAN, Allahmu, menyertai engkau, ke manapun engkau pergi.<\/span><\/p>\n

— Yosua 1:9<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

From Him Alone We’ll Get the Strength<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Have you ever felt so tired? So tired that you don’t have enough energy to walk in this life with joy?<\/span><\/p>\n

We might experience it sometimes.<\/span><\/p>\n

In those times, let’s surrender all the feelings in our heart…<\/span><\/p>\n

And let’s trust God, the Creator of life.<\/span><\/p>\n

From Him alone, we’ll get the strength.<\/span><\/p>\n

(-fon-)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

— Phillipans 4:13<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dari Dia Saja Kita Dapatkan Kekuatan<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Pernahkah Anda merasa lelah? Begitu lelahnya menjalani kehidupan sampai tak lagi punya cukup energi untuk menjalankan aktivitas dengan sukacita?<\/span><\/p>\n

Pada suatu kondisi, kita pasti pernah mengalaminya.<\/span><\/p>\n

Di saat-saat seperti itu, marilah mempersembahkan segala rasa kegalauan di dada.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dan kembali mempercayai Tuhan, Sang Penguasa Kehidupan…<\/span><\/p>\n

Dari Dia saja kita dapatkan kekuatan.<\/span><\/p>\n

(-fon-)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Dengan kuasa yang diberikan Kristus kepada saya, saya mempunyai kekuatan untuk menghadapi segala rupa keadaan.<\/span><\/p>\n

— Filipi 4:13<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Be Strong in the Lord<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s be strong in the Lord with His Mighty Power.<\/span><\/p>\n

It’s a very good reminder for all of us.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the midst of \u00a0this chaotic world, it’s more difficult to find something true and pure.<\/span><\/p>\n

Only by drawing ourselves near God, then we’ll have a peaceful heart.<\/span><\/p>\n

Peace and joy because He’s the true source of strength!<\/span><\/p>\n

(-fon-)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.<\/span><\/p>\n

— Ephesians 6:10<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Kuat di dalam Dia<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Hendaklah kita semua kuat dengan kekuatan dari Kuasa Tuhan, karena kita bersatu dengan Dia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sebuah ajakan yang sangat baik bagi kita semua.<\/span><\/p>\n

Di tengah dunia saat ini, semakin sulit mencari sesuatu yang sejati.<\/span><\/p>\n

Hanya dekat Allah saja ada ketenangan.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kedamaian dan sukacita, karena Dialah sumber kekuatan sejati!<\/span><\/p>\n

(-fon-)<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Akhirnya, hendaklah kalian menjadi kuat dengan kekuatan yang kalian dapat dari kuasa Tuhan, karena kalian bersatu dengan Dia.<\/span><\/p>\n

— Efesus 6:10<\/span><\/p>\n
