That’s the title of our next Sunday School lesson (August 9, 2009). The following verse fragments caught my attention in my reading this morning:

“We are well able to overcome it” ().

“We were in our own sight” ().

“And wherefore hath the LORD brought us unto this land?” ().

“Let us return into Egypt” ().

“If the LORD delight in us” ().

I’ve got to do better at rejecting faithless negativity and at embracing faithful, faith-driven positivity. (Did I just coin a new word?!)

from Numbers 14:9
