Hebrews 6:19–20.

We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, 20  where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.  Hebrews 6:19–20.

I am so thankful the Lord has given me “steadfast” at this time. In this season this is what I am to be. I was looking at references of this word and I came across this verse. I knew I was to write about it
