Give thanks in helplessness and stand firm in a living faith

We must learn to accept helplessness, immediately give thanks for everything, and take God’s word as the sword of the Spirit against bitterness or complaining – in other words, put our trust in it. God’s word – the Spirit behind it – will give us strength. We only need to stop and confront our situation in a living faith: “Lord, You see it! I trust in You!” And then try to stand firm in that faith and return to it again whenever all kinds of invisible, cunning pressures or seemingly innocent or good thoughts seek to divert us from our union to Christ.
