Jude 1:20-21
\nBut you, dear friends, by building yourselves up\u00a0in your most holy faith\u00a0and praying in the Holy Spirit,\u00a0keep yourselves in God\u2019s love as you wait\u00a0for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.<\/i>
\nCongratulations for finishing these 40 days. We have looked at the DNA<\/b> of discipleship (D<\/b>ivine truth, N<\/b>urturing relationships and A<\/b>postolic mission) and practiced the being, doing and thinking related to faith in Jesus. We said at the beginning that 40 days was a time of testing where something significant was going to happen. Do you have any idea what that might be? Don\u2019t worry if it is not yet clear because sometimes growth is invisible. Sometimes it is something that others can see but we don\u2019t see in ourselves. Sometimes it is a feeling or a conviction but sometimes it is simply having survived the test. For whatever the results, rejoice! Thank God! Celebrate the accomplishment. Tell someone else as your example of perseverance may be of great encouragement and an example to follow. And express your gratitude to God for such a Savior as Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n
