And I looked, and arose and said to the nobles, to the leaders, and to the rest of the people, "Do not be afraid of them. Remember the Lord, great and awesome, and fight for your brethren, your sons, your daughters, your wives, and your houses." Nehemiah 4:14 (NKJV)
When we are faced with an overwhelming obstacle and we are tempted to utter those words of forfeiter, “I can’t”, we need to remember the Lord. We need to remember where we find the power to overcome; it is not found in our strength or our courage. No the power to overcome and overpower the obstacles and trials in our life is found in Christ alone.
No matter how small or great the obstacles are or may seem to be, they are important to God. We as His followers have been adopted as His children. He loves us; everything that we face, every obstacle is important to Him. He is using every situation to mold us into who He wants us to be. Furthermore He wishes to help us conquer every one of the daily difficulties that we face. All we have to do is remember His power, trust His will and seek His guidance.
