Don't Run From Trouble

Don’t Run, Face Trouble Head-On

When a bird spots trouble approaching, it doesn’t turn away; instead, it faces into the wind, using its strength to lift itself higher. Airplanes use the wind, which hits them directly, to rise to greater heights.

Life works similarly.

When difficulty confronts us directly, we aren’t meant to run or turn away.

Never turn your back on a threat; instead, plant your feet firmly and confront it head-on.

Never run from trouble. When God gives you the go-ahead, head straight toward it.

Don’t seek trouble, but don’t be afraid to pursue it when commanded to do so.

Inconsistencies are like a powerful wind.

They often bring a lot of backlash.

Chaos is meant to create confusion.

Lies tend to reveal those telling tall tales.

But it takes time.

People are easily influenced.

Our natural instinct is to flee the storm, to turn away from the wind.

If you wonder why those who oppose common sense keep repeating the same lies, it’s because human nature equates repetition with truth.

Say a lie enough times, with enough conviction, and many will start to believe it.

God uses storms, strong winds, and resistance to build our strength and open new doors.

None of this surprises our Creator.

Evil forces taunt our culture, and it’s shocking how easily they collapse.

God is aware.

He controls the wind.

He permits trouble, and He has given us everything we need to stand firm and face trouble head-on.
