Sometimes the path to better takes you backwards first. What feels like loss or regression may actually be God strengthening your foundation and teaching you to trust His grace in ways you couldn’t when everything made sense.

It's one thing to receive something good from God. It's another thing to learn how to hold onto it when life gets hard. The enemy’s attack doesn’t get to take away the confidence, peace, or purpose God has given you. When you're feeling overwhelmed, remember: The strength to hold on comes from knowing Who's holding on to you.
