Quote of the Week for Wednesday, 9/23/26
“Sometimes life is so hard you can only do the next thing. Whatever that is, just do the next thing. God will meet you there.” – Elisabeth Elliot
“For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide we might have hope.” Romans 15:4-5 NIV (emphasis mine)
No one ever said that answering God’s call would be easy. To endure means to go on, hold on, abide, continue, persist. We can do that!
In His Love, Cindy

The Lord appeared to Abram and said, … “I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you and your descendants after you…” Genesis 17:7 (emphasis mine)

God’s word going out through your posts achieves his intended purpose. We may not learn of the outcome, yet we remain confident that the undeniable cause and effect exceeds what we hope for or imagine.

Elisabeth Elliot’s line lands with quiet force — when life tightens and clarity disappears, faith shrinks down to one simple act of obedience. Just do the next thing. God isn’t waiting at the finish line; He meets you in the step you can actually take.
