This blog post is based off of 1 Chronicles 28:1-21 from the "New Women's Devotional Bible".
God told Kind David that he had big plans for his son Solomon. He wanted Solomon to take over the throne of Israel and to build His temple in the city.
After many years of battles and wars under King David, he told his son to be strong and take courage for God would be with him in building the temple. David knew that God had big plans for his son and he wanted Solomon to know this.
God is constantly working in our own lives. He has big plans for each of us. What is he working on in you?
I know that God has been working on me for a very long time. I know that he has worked on my trust with others, he has also helped me with my control and taught me how to let go. I am still being worked on in that department, but I know that God will continue His work until it is completed.
When God tells us to be strong and courageous it gives us hope that we will get through. God is doing the work and we must let Him - only being strong and keeping in faith as He works. I take great comfort in this...I don't have to do much. Just trust in God and allow Him to move, change, work.
