(Pro 24:16 KJV) For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
As I read this chapter today I was struck by what it is that keeps Christians moving forward. If our focus is on what goes on around us, on the evil elites that keep pushing their agenda, on the decay of our culture, we would know nothing but doom and gloom.
We don’t wallow in gloom for long. Sure, it hits us. We are human with all of our weaknesses and limitations, but our focus is not on the political leaders or the nonsense of our youth. Our focus is on Almighty God. That means we allow Him to pick us up, dust us off and try all over again. I think there is a song with similar lyrics. The song is based on our efforts. This verse is based on the power and Grace of God.
So? Let Him pick you up, dust you off, pat you on the back and send you back into the fray. The Adventure continues.
