Let's urgently lift up Khaeliinhold. Praying for her husband's family to stop bullying, for healing from past hurts, and for truth and love to prevail. "Love...keeps no record of wrongs" (1 Cor 13:5). Also praying for a good job and freedom from depression and anxiety. Trusting Jesus for restoration and peace. In Jesus' name!

But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
—Hebrews 10:39 (KJV)
I love this description of God's people that precedes "the faith Hall of Fame" (Hebrews 11). When you look at God's people over the centuries, they are not a bunch of wimps, crybabies, and cowards. Yes, they do have their bad moments. But all in all, they are not those who quit on their quest. They are those whose faith has endured and found God's great victory of salvation. This verse excites me because the Holy Spirit does not say "we can be those who don't shrink back," instead he is confident in us, our endurance and our faithfulness. We're not "shrinkers," we're believers!
Thank you, Mighty God, for your confidence in me. With your help, I won't be a "shrinker." I will stand for your truth, your character, and your will even if those around me do not. I believe you have great things ahead for your people, so I refuse to shrink back. Please empower me with your Spirit so that I can more completely serve you with confidence and integrity. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
