“David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.” 1 Samuel 17:45 NVI

I was driving...I had to get to the university and I was late already. I wasn't really worried. I felt it somehow but I had peace and I knew God had control of the situation. I had an appointment with my advisor and I had to get there on time. It was almost time for the appointment and I was 30 minutes away from where I had to be! I decided to turn on the GPS to check the names of the roads because I had my route planed already.

I was still learning to take interstates roads so I didn’t take them on my own. I took alternate roads to get to the places that I needed to go, yes, it was going to take longer, but I was also avoiding them. Suddenly I started following the GPS and drove for a while, few minutes later I found out I was about to exit to an interstate road. I couldn't believe it! I was so scared! I got really mad and worried about it because I was lost, I was about to cry. I called my mom and I told her that I was lost and that the only way to arrive to place I needed to be was taking the interstate road. I asked the Lord for help, for peace and guidance and I told my mom! I'm taking the road! I hang up with her and I felt so confident, I got into the road and get to the place where I needed to be and God taught me a valuable lesson.

Dear friend, there are going to be situations in life that we will try to avoid, like me, my mother try to convince me many times to go through that road and I didn't want to. God on the other hand had other plans. He made me take the road. He needs us to confront our fears because He knows that if we do, we will be able to go further. He will have the right moment for you to confront that fear and overcome it! My friend with Him everything is possible... As soon as I prayed and asked for His helped I felt how my prayer was answered and His power was released in me. The shy, fearful girl wasn't there anymore instead there was a brave woman of God ready to fight the next giant!
