The Feeling Most Christians Mistake For Weakness

That ache you feel when something is wrong? It isn't weakness. It's a holy signal.Today we sit with Esther, a young woman who was handed terrible news and given an impossible choice. Mordecai asked her to speak up for her people, knowing the cost. She felt the fear, but something holy stirred in her, and she rose. You and I may not be royalty, but we carry influence too - at work, at home, in our neighbourhood, and in our corps.Justice isn't only about noticing what's wrong. It's about stepping into it, even when it's costly. God doesn't call us to comfort. He calls us to courage.Your next step today: ask God one simple question - "What would you have me do?" Then listen. Then act.Subscribe for a fresh 5-minute devotional every day. Just five quiet minutes, one passage of Scripture, and something practical to carry into your day.Today's reading: Esther 4:7-8 (NLT)📱 THE BATTLE DRILL APP Every day is a chance to hear from God.
