Is your strength too small?

TODAY’S PROVERB: If you falter in a day of adversity, your strength is small. Proverbs 24:10

The true test of wisdom’s strength in our life is when trials and tribulations befall us. I can spout wise words with the best of them, but when challenges arise, especially ones that push those weak areas of my heart, I can still falter. That what-do-I-do panic moment before His truth kicks in.

It’s like standing on a precipice with a stampede behind me. My first thoughts are “Yikes! Help!” or a sense of hopelessness. But, the sooner I pause and look up, out of my physical situation, my Heavenly Father can guide me — show me how to proceed. He can give me that peace — that perfect shalom.

And the shalom of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Messiah Yeshua. Philippians 4:7

I fully own to being weak. Still, if faltering points me to my true strength, my Abba, then that’s not too bad.

May we be wise and dependent upon our True Strength, my friends.
