Devotionals - Five minutes at the pump

Fuel-stop devotionals.

Written to be read in the time it takes to fill two tanks. A new one every day, drawn from a year's worth of readings — scripture, a thought to chew on, and a prayer.

Standing Under Pressure1 Corinthians 16:13
No. 71
Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.1 Corinthians 16:13

Peer pressure doesn't end in high school — it just changes shape. The pressure to compromise your values, lower your standards, or blend in will follow you your whole life. The question is whether your roots are deep enough to withstand the wind.

Reflect

Is there an area of your life where you're drifting from your values to fit in? What would standing firm look like?

Prayer

Lord, give me the courage to stand for what I believe in, even when it costs me something. Amen.
