Stand or Fold

Have you ever had and idea that you knew was revolutionary? Thinking about it made you excited because you knew that it would benefit the people around you. Your idea is not just a good idea, but it is a God idea. You prepare every detail. You tell everyone you know; they are excited about it. You put everything you have and everything you are into it. The day that you have anticipated has finally arrived; you know you are going to do so well, then nothing. No one comes to the play. No one buys your book. No one comes to the party. Now what?

In the face of opposition do you stand at all cost or do you fold?

If God told you to do something He has made provision for it, even when you don’t see it at first. When you want to give up, when you want to stop trying this is the moment when God is asking you, “How bad do you want it?” Are you willing to look stupid for His sake? Are you willing to walk alone because He told you to go where others fear to tread? Will you give up on God when He tells you to reach outside yourself and trust Him?

I don’t know about you, but as for me, I stand!
