I WILL NOT DOUBT THOUGH ALL MY SHIPS COME HOME WITH BROKEN SAILS!
When everything goes wrong & seems contrary to the Word & the usual, only those with great faith can say with Job, "Though He slay me, yet will I TRUST Him!" (Job 13:15) Even though the Lord let the Devil nearly destroy him, Job still didn't say "uncle" to the Devil, nor even to his wife who told him to curse God & die! He just kept on believing & obeying!--And he came out doubly blessed & lives forever! But a lot of people faint on the way to victory. They get weak & tired & they give up. They "suffer so many things in vain." (Gal.3:4) They go though so much & then miss the victory!--Like Esau, they give up too easily. He despised his birthright & settled for something he could see & easily believe in, rather than something he couldn't see & had to have great faith for. (Gen.25:33-34) So when things look darkest, don't look down!--Look UP! Be not fearful, but believing! Keep believing & obeying no matter what happens! Don't get down in the mouth, murmuring & discouraged, but praise the Lord & thank Him for the glorious victories of the future by faith, even if you can't see them now.--You'll be glad you trusted Him tomorrow!
