Last week I told you about the words that I had woken up with one morning – “stand firm”. I’ve continued to hold these words close to heart and mind. In Isaiah 7 it says “so the hearts of Ahaz and his people were shaken, as the trees of the forest are shaken by the wind.”  We can be shaken at times and we need to remember where our roots are – we need to remember to stand firm and not give in to the things that stir our leaves - that disturb us. I am trying to be thoughtful and prayerful when I detect something that disturbs me – that shakes me. Aware that I can easily respond in wrong ways, I choose to stand in faith and not react in fear.

The word of the Lord comes to Ahaz and his people with this challenge: “If you do not stand firm in your faith, you will not stand at all”.
