Praise Power
M
y wife, Maria, was feeling very tired and had such a headache earlier today that she had become discouraged about her health. As I prayed for her, I was reminded of the verse that tells us not to be weary and faint in our minds.1 I think the Lord wanted to inspire her to have a little more fight. Our spiritual enemy, the Devil, really fights us, but as long as we keep fighting back, he can’t win. It reminds me of a song my mother used to sing when the going got tough: Keep on believing; God answers prayer. Keep on believing; He’s still up there. Sorrows and troubles will soon disappear: Nothing can harm you when Jesus is near. Keep on believing; the storm will pass, Look for the rainbow; ’twill come at last. 1
