He Gets the Last Word
I started a bible study and this is one of the verses that I found yesterday. It fits perfectly with our struggles lately. I love it and wanted to share. This translation is put into words that are really easy to understand. So if you have a hard time reading the good ole King James Version you should check this out. You can look it up online :)
The Messege Translation
1 Peter 5:8
8-11 Keep a cool head. Stay alert. The Devil is poised to pounce, and would like nothing better than to catch you napping. Keep your guard up. You're not the only ones plunged into these hard times. It's the same with Christians all over the world. So keep a firm grip on the faith. The suffering won't last forever. It won't be long before this generous God who has great plans for us in Christ—eternal and glorious plans they are!—will have you put together and on your feet for good. He gets the last word; yes, he does.
