“Be sure you put your feet in the right place, then stand firm.” – Abraham Lincoln
Sometimes, what we need to do is not to seek new grounds or explore new horizons. Sometimes, we already know the task God has given us to do. We already know where we ought to fight our battles. What remains to be done is to stand firm in the path where we are.
No matter how strong the winds may blow, we must not let our courage be swayed. No matter how dark the night may be, we must not lose sight of the coming dawn.
Stand firmly where God has planted you. Keep your hopes up! Never give up.
God will give you the strength to withstand the fiercest storms. Let Him uphold you and keep you where you ought to be!
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to withstand on that evil day, and having done everything, to stand firm. – Ephesians 6:13, NRSV-CE
