Milk and Honey

Written by Annabelle Ovaitt, Highlands College

It can be hard to keep pushing for and believing in something. Is there ever a point when we should ever just settle for less or abandon faith?

Whether it’s with a relationship, job, family, a sickness… having faith is hard in the midst of the unknown. It’s in these times we feel tested, tried, and maybe even a little crazy. Yet when we’re tempted to give up or settle for less than God’s standard, we can remember who Yahweh has proven to be throughout history. 

As we shift from a tired, dwindling faith to vibrant hope, it helps to be grounded in the word of God. We can be encouraged by His steadfast history. While his plans don’t always look exactly like our own, his heart towards us is abundant life (John 10:10).  

If you’ve been considering settling or believing you deserve a less-than life, take a faithful step by praying with us. 

“So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey…” (Exodus 3:8a).  

A Prayer for Milk and Honey

God of abundant life, thank you for the good and perfect gifts you give. Thank you for never settling, and for not wanting me to settle either. Even in the unknown, you have a wonderful, sovereign plan. I have faith you’re leading me out of my Egypt and into a land overflowing with milk and honey. Thank you that I don’t have to earn your gifts. Help me be patient in waiting for your timing and your way. Thank you, Jesus, for your ultimate gift of salvation and life with you. I trust you to move on my behalf and to open the doors you have for me. Amen.
