How can I ever succeed

How can I ever succeed when I am challenged from every angle? Ever ask yourself this question? Whether young or old, in this world we face disappointments day after day.

King David was declared King by God yet had to wait years to see it though. Along the way his life was threatened by enemies from every camp, even his own family, yet he persevered. (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Samuel%2019&version=NIV)

Moses was asked to lead a people enslaved by a powerful world leader and had no real weapons but the Spirit of God. He couldn't even speak clearly. (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus%204:9-11&version=NKJV) 

Even the great theologian Paul, faced threats day in and day out, because of his commitment to the Lord. (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20Corinthians%2011%3A16-33&version=NIV)

Our lives may not be as eventful as these mentioned above, but our challenges are great enough. We think so anyway! So whether we are a husband and father trying our best to lead a family, a single mom struggling to make ends meet, or a young student-athlete working hard every day to reach his or her goals, God knows! He cares! 

We may seem to be coming up short day after day, but we have to trust Him . . . trust His ways . . . trust His plan. The people mentioned above suffered many failures for sure. However, ultimately they were are are rewarded by God. the Bible says that joy comes in the morning . . . after the darkest of nights. The reward is waiting . . . keep pressing! Never ever give up!

Sing praise to the Lord, you saints of His, and give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name. For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life;
Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning. (Psalm 30:1-5)

How do you have to trust God today?
