“…Therefore, dear friends, since you have been forewarned, be on your guard so that you may not be carried away by the error of the lawless and fall from your secure position…” 2 Pet 3:17, TNIV (italics and emphasis mine)
There is an old adage which goes, “where we stand determines what we see”. Where you stand is the position that you take in life on different issues; your stance is unique about you, it sets you apart from another. Standing for something demands discipline (restraints), determination (resolve) and direction (vision).
If you are to achieve anything worthwhile in life, you have to stand for something. You cannot afford to be tossed to and fro by people’s opinion, comments or view. The truth is, if you don’t stand for something, you will fall for everything…If you have not found what you are willing to die for, you have not found what to live for!
