Crossed It

Hi, I'm Johnny Erickson Tata. Recently, Ken and I got back from a very busy week of travel.

We were so tired, but we were committed to reading scripture every day. And so, although

we were tired, we opened up our Bibles to the Book of Judges. And guess what we found?

In chapter 8 verse 4, it says,

Gideon and his 300 men, exhausted, yet keeping up the pursuit, came to the Jordan and

crossed it. Did you love that? Gideon's troops were exhausted, completely worn out, and

yet they kept up the pursuit. Don't you love that? It's a short but potent little lesson

about pressing on, especially when our circumstances are hard and painful. And it was just what

Ken and I needed to hear. So, friend, whether you are exhausted from travel, the battles of

chronic pain, or worn out from the day to day routines and parenting, remember that

you too can press on by the grace of God. Keep up the pursuit.
