Bible verse
Hebrews 10:23

“Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)”
What it means
In a world of shifting promises, we can hold tightly to our hope without wavering. The reason is not our own strength but the character of God: He who promised is faithful. Every assurance He has made rests on His unchanging nature and the finished work of Jesus. When doubts press in, we do not cling to feelings but to His faithfulness. Keep gripping the hope you profess, because the One who secured it will never let you down. What He has begun in Christ, He will surely bring to completion.
