Each day we live on this earth is a fight. When I think of Christian fighters, the one who stands out most to me today is David. The story of David in the Bible it is not about physical strength, but the strength of his faith. He stood on what he knew. He knew that God had saved him from the lion and bear, surely God would help him defeat Goliath! [1 Samuel 17:37]
You see, once you know God has brought you through, it builds up you confidence even more. A wise Believer takes their down-time and uses it as a time to rebuild or restore — knowing they come out of the storm better than before.
Don’t let your down-time get you down. Use your time wisely by preparing for your breakthrough. As the old-timers used to sing, troubles don’t last always.
Heavenly Father, thank you for the down-time. We ask that you help us manage it properly so we may stay on course. Show us how to bring others closer to you through our walk. Amen.
