THE ANTHEM OF THE DESPERATE

'Desperate' is not a word anybody likes to be called, yet desperate people shock themselves with the things they are able to do and the extents they go to in their desperation. It's just like Micah Stampley said in that song, "Desperate people do desperate things", and frankly, it's not all bad.
Even God, desperate to restore us to Himself (oh, what won't love drive you to do?), came down to suffer and die!

History and the Bible are littered with the stories of people who found their miracles in their desperation. It's easy to read their stories in a single breath... forgetting that before their situations turned around, they didn't wake up that morning knowing what was going to happen later in the day! The same way you are not aware of the miracle coming your way! They were taking it one day at a time... just like you right now.

Let's take some time to look at the stories of some of these 'heroes of desperation'. Those whose spirits sang this anthem when they heard about Jesus:
Maybe He ain't coming for me... but He's coming anyway.

The people who could squeeze miracles out of the seemingly ordinary by virtue of their desperation and faith.

I won't make you wait long 😉
We start this afternoon. May you be spurred on to Holy Desperation.
