Forasmuch

Because God has blessed us with so much, He also holds us accountable to live faithfully and respond with gratitude and obedience. We must be careful who influences us, remembering that wrong relationships can lead us away from God, as they did with Solomon. Since Christ suffered for us and our labor for Him is never in vain, we should remain faithful, willing to endure hardship, and never forsake the God who has been so good to us.
