Life inevitably brings moments when giving up seems like the only option, but God offers a higher perspective on our challenges. Even Jesus experienced profound sorrow, showing we're not alone in our struggles.

Like David who encouraged himself in the Lord during extreme distress, we can turn to God for divine strategy that leads to restoration. With a 'made up mind' as Galatians 6:9 encourages, and by recognizing that every problem carries an opportunity for God's power to be displayed, we can persevere through difficulties. When we trust God to fight our battles, He can turn what seems hopeless into something beautiful.
