Worms Among Us! - Jude
In this chapter, Jude (brother of James) is warning us about "godless people have wormed their way in among" us. And yet, we have a job to do here on earth for the short time we're here.
I found my encouragement today in verses 20 - 23:
20 But you, dear friends, must continue to build your lives on the foundation of your holy faith. And continue to pray as you are directed by the Holy Spirit. 21 Live in such a way that God's love can bless you as you wait for the eternal life that our Lord Jesus Christ in his mercy is going to give you. 22 Show mercy to those whose faith is wavering. 23 Rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. There are still others to whom you need to show mercy, but be careful that you aren't contaminated by their sins.
Build up our faith, Lord, and direct us by the Holy Spirit today. - amen
