We need not worry about battles lost, for the minute Jesus gave His life for us, the war was already won! In these difficult times, we need only love God with our whole heart and soul, and love each other as ourselves. For the moment we accept Jesus as our Savior is the moment we “win” 🙂
And although we should, of course, always do our best to stand for our faith in Jesus Christ and all that He taught, we must also remember that although our efforts are our gift to God, the outcome itself – belongs to God 🙂
