## Resource

Hey friends thanks for tuning in! Today's reminder is that obstacles are opportunities! Whether it be David facing Goliath, the Israelites trapped between the sea and the army of Pharaoh, or the horror of the cross. God can win and God can get the glory. So, "Let us not lose heart in doing good for we will reap if we do not grow weary." Galatians 6.9 Please give Jon's new ministry page @wildgamefaith a follow on instagram.
