Instead of focusing on the size of the enemy, he focused on the greatness of God. And instead of rushing ahead, he learned to stand still and wait on God. In this week’s ScriptureLinks Daily Dose of Inspiration, we’ll ask three important questions: 1. When trouble comes, who do you turn to? 2. When trouble comes, what do you focus on? 3.
