Sometimes the ground you’re called to hold is as small as the space between a question and your answer. You know what’s true, and you know what it might cost you to say it. Fear can make a little retreat sound like good sense. You can feel that fear and still tell the truth. You can keep your word when breaking it would make life easier, or refuse to answer cruelty with cruelty when you have every chance to hit back. That’s where faith has to hold. God gives you what you need to stand, and the choice before you is real. You may walk away with your hands still shaking, but you will be grateful that the Lord gave you the strength you need in that moment.
You will walk with God.
“Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.” —Ephesians 6:13
