Verse from Proverbs

“因为义人虽然七次跌倒，仍能再起来；但恶人必在祸患中绊倒。”

‭‭箴言‬ ‭24:16‬ ‭

“for though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.”

‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭24:16‬ ‭

This proverb reminds us that the righteous, those who trust in and have a right relationship with God, will still experience difficulties and hardships. However, as they continue to seek Him even in the midst of difficulty, God is faithful to give them the strength to rise again. 

Have you recently experienced a devastating disappointment or failure and feel like you’ll never recover? Scripture encourages us not to rely on our strength but to continue to put our confidence in God and His promises. As we trust Him, God’s Spirit gives us strength for every difficulty we encounter in this life, from the seemingly mundane to significant struggles (2 Corinthians 12:9).
