: As Faustino Zamora Vargas expresses it well, "The church advances when it decides to cross its Jordan in obedience trusting that, as the body of Christ, it will not be abandoned, but encouraged in the Spirit." Being obedient requires courage and effort. Amen

As Faustino Zamora Vargas mentions, the key is to trust that, as we cross our "Jordans", the Lord will not abandon us, but will encourage us in the Spirit. He encourages us to move forward, despite the challenges, with the certainty that His presence guarantees us certain victory.
