What else can I say? There isn’t enough time to tell about Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets. Their faith helped them conquer kingdoms, and because they did right, God made promises to them. They closed the jaws of lions and put out raging fires and escaped from the swords of their enemies. Although they were weak, they were given the strength and power to chase foreign armies away. ~ Hebrews 11:32-34 (CEV)

Lord, thank you so much for all that you have done for us in the past. I confess, though, that I am feeling a bit anxious about the challenges we're all facing now. Please give me the faith to trust you to conquer the current enemies. Even though I'm weak I know that I can rely on you. Amen.
