Hebrews 6:9:
Dear friends, even though we say these things, we are still convinced that better things are in store for you and that they will save you.
Hebrews 6:10:
God is fair. He won't forget what you've done or the love you've shown for him. You helped his holy people, and you continue to help them.
Hebrews 6:11:
We want each of you to prove that you're working hard so that you will remain confident until the end.
Hebrews 6:12:
Then, instead of being lazy, you will imitate those who are receiving the promises through faith and patience.
Hebrews 6:13:
God made a promise to Abraham. Since he had no one greater on whom to base his oath, he based it on himself.
Hebrews 6:14:
He said, "I will certainly bless you and give you many descendants."
Hebrews 6:15:
So Abraham received what God promised because he waited patiently for it.
Hebrews 6:16:
When people take oaths, they base their oaths on someone greater than themselves. Their oaths guarantee what they say and end all arguments.
Hebrews 6:17:
God wouldn't change his plan. He wanted to make this perfectly clear to those who would receive his promise, so he took an oath.
Hebrews 6:18:
God did this so that we would be encouraged. God cannot lie when he takes an oath or makes a promise. These two things can never be changed. Those of us who have taken refuge in him hold on to the confidence we have been given.
Hebrews 6:19:
We have this confidence as a sure and strong anchor for our lives. This confidence goes into the holy place behind the curtain
Hebrews 6:20:
where Jesus went before us on our behalf. He has become the chief priest forever in the way Melchizedek was a priest.

When God makes a promise, He fulfills it. When God's promises are not yet fulfilled in our lives, just be patient like Abraham. We can be sure as Christians that God will make it happen because He doesn't lie. I am also waiting patiently of His promise to me, and I am faithful because God is faithful. We must be concerned of what to do right now, this day and do His will. "One day at a time," I used to say. Before you know it, God's promise has come to pass, and we praise Him with songs and a glorious celebration!

So, we can be confident in the Lord just like a boat anchored by the sea. No matter if there is a storm, our boat stays afloat because we are anchored in the Lord by faith.

Make sure that this day will glorify God, and please Him. One day at a time.

"So don't ever worry about tomorrow. After all, tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

(Matthew 6:34, GodsWord)
