I read the words written on old pages to an old nation as
they crossed the desert into a new land -- God will fight for you.
And I draw in a deep breath.
Because I need those words now.
Don't we all?
Oh, we may not go to war.
But we fight...
for relationships
for dreams
We battle...
against illness
against discouragement
I think of you staring at the screen, perhaps feeling your strength is small. Oh, yes, I know what that's like.
But victory isn't up to us.
And those words you sometimes hear? "You're not worth fighting for."
They're a lie.
Nothing more.
This is the truth from the heart of One who calls you His own:
You are loved.
You are worth fighting for.
You are even worth dying for.
So go into your day, strong friend, knowing that nothing can defeat you.
You've already won.
