Are you knocked down?
We had EIGHT more baptisms this past weekend (five on Thursday and three on Sunday). When any of us take the plunge and say we are ALL IN, it’s an incredible moment. But then, life happens.
This is not just a reminder to our eight new family members, this is for all of us. Life can hurt. Life can hit us from all sides, and often it hits us right after a spiritual mountain top experience.
What do we do then? We get back up and keep going. We take every blow the world throws at us and we keep moving toward Jesus. There is no place better to go!
“We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed.” (2 Corinthians 4:8-9 NLT)
