Excelling in Christ

Keep Yourself in the Love of God


Listen Later

In this episode, I reflect on Jude 20–21 and what it means to live in the safe harbor of God’s keeping power. Life is brief, fragile, and often exhausting, and it is easy for me to think the Christian life is mostly about trying harder and holding everything together. But this passage reminds me of something steadier. I am called to build on the most holy faith, to root my life in God’s truth rather than passing feelings or opinions. I am called to pray in the Holy Spirit, learning again that strength does not come from self-reliance but from dependence on God. I am called to keep myself in the love of God through abiding obedience, to wait expectantly for the mercy of Jesus Christ, and to keep eternal life in view. This conversation is about more than endurance. It is about where my soul lives, rests, and is strengthened. When I remember that God keeps His people, I can face life with greater peace, deeper trust, and clearer purpose. This episode invites me to stop drifting and remain close to the One who holds me fast.
