Noah waited 120 years before the predicted rains arrived.
Jacob wrestled with God.
Abraham waited 25 years for a promised son.
Esther risked her life.
Joseph waited 14 years in prison for a crime he didn’t commit.
Ezekiel faced countless years of opposition.
Job waited perhaps a lifetime, 60-70 years, for God’s justice.
And Moses, well, we all know Moses’ life was no cakewalk.
Point is, if life has you struggling through your circumstances and sweating on the edges of stress and faith… God is there. He is with you… guiding you… leading you… loving you… and carrying you through.
Be patient in the struggle.
Persevere through the challenges.
Lean in to the discomforts.
Why?
Because this:
“Great faith is the product of great fights. Great testimonies are the outcome of great tests. Great triumphs can only come out of great trials.” Smith Wigglesworth
