To Stand Again

by Paul Hughes

Jesus' resurrection empowers us, through the Holy Spirit, to stand again in hope and in the victory of living out the new life he has given us—especially in not being swayed by what people think of us but living confidently, like Jesus did, only by the Father's directives. (Romans 6:3-8; Colossians 3:1-4; Acts 10:34-35, 42-43; Mark 14:27-15:3; Hebrews 13:8)
