Sometimes God calls us to do things that are pretty unstrategic.

As Gideon is leading his soldiers to battle, God has him *reduce* the number of troops. And then reduce them again. When Gideon courageously obeys, God still carries the day.

Could it be God is asking you to do something unstrategic in your career?

What would it look like to let him carry the day in your work?
