Comments by Joan Boney:
The apostle Peter tells us what to do:
I Thessalonians 5:8 But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
* stay sober: clear minded
* keep our faith in God
* hold fast to love toward God for HIS salvation, love for the Word of God, love for the saints in Christ.
* focus on our hope for salvation (our hope is in God, not in man)
9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ (the Word of God),
10 Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with HIM.
11 Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
