Christians in the Gritty
Christians. Sisters. Best Friends.
Walk with us as we take you into the grit of life.

Christians. Sisters. Best Friends.
Even as God following Christians, we have to overcome fear and anxieties. We are called to persevere not only through our struggles with these, but also to have the courage to answer God's calling to us. To be able to get up on that stage when needed. To make a podcast if that's what he is asking of you. God will equip us in what his path is for us! What is he calling you to? Are you working to build God's Kingdom? We need the determination to resist the world. We need to have the discernment to know what to say to those who do not believe and the courage to give our testimony to bring them to Christ! Pray and ask God what he is calling you to. He is calling you to something. Be blessed!
1 Peter 5:6-11 ESV
“Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen.”
Jude 1:18-21, 23 ESV
“They said to you, “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.”
John 8:42 ESV
“Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I came not of my own accord, but he sent me.”
