The problem? You’ve handled, tolerated, done, forgiven, and taken until you don’t have one more “one more” in you! But be encouraged. 1 Samuel 30:6 describes six hundred men stoking their anger against David. But then it says, “David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.” How essential that we learn to do the same.
Support systems don’t always support. Friends aren’t always friendly. Pastors can wander off base and churches get out of touch. When no one can help, we have to do what David does here. We have to strengthen ourselves in the Lord. Are you weary? Catch your breath. It’s okay to rest. Jesus fights when you cannot. You turn to him, and you find strength in your Lord.
