The squeezing, the pressing—that’s not how your story ends. Real victory is not won in public; it’s won in private. On the other side of suffering is the power of resurrection. The enemy doesn’t have the final say; God does.
Use your words to bless people, not to curse them. The mercy you show others is the mercy that’s going to be shown to you. Be trustworthy, be honorable, and quiet the gossip.
God loves you too much to let you live below who you were created to be. You are God’s masterpiece. You have a purpose to fulfill. You are worthy not because of what you did, but because of what Jesus did. Get in agreement with what God says about you.
The trouble is not there to stop you, it’s there to propel you. God wouldn’t have allowed the storm if you weren’t going to make to the other side. You haven’t seen, heard or imagined what God has in store for you.
