God is the active force behind every step of turning someone into a Christian, providing not only the means, but also the power and Spirit that creates new life in what was once spiritually dead. Today, we are reminded that our God not only brings us to faith, he also keeps us in our faith and preserves us through trial and tribulation. Because we have that promise from God, we can do what our Savior commands: we will love our enemies, bless those who curse us, do good to those who hate us, and pray for them who persecute and harass us. We have nothing to fear because our living God preserves us .
