Athlete Devotionals: October 31 – Finish Strong
SHARE

Psalm 27:14 (NIV)

“Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.”

Reflection

Waiting is tough, especially when you’re wired to hustle. Maybe you’re waiting to heal, to get more playing time, or waiting for God to answer a prayer. Psalm 27 reminds us that waiting isn’t wasted when it’s on God.

Strength is built in the stillness. Growth happens in the quiet. Don’t rush through your waiting season. Lean into it. God often prepares us during the pause.

The wait might be the very thing building the strength you’ll need for what comes next.

Application

Write down one thing you’re waiting on. Surrender it to God and ask Him for patience and trust in the process.

Compete with Faith. Grow with His Word.
