Hi Friends:

I’m thinking about Gideon today and his Unlikely Victory!

Gideon, secured his victory and place in history with only 300 men. He started with 32,000 possibilities, which still felt short, yet the 300 were "more than enough."

Surviving the 31,700 "No's": The remarkable part of the story isn't just the 300 who said "yes," but the 31,700 "no's" (rejections) Gideon had to endure to find the right people for his victory.

Life is Full of Rejection: This is just like life. We often face one "no" after another, which can be disheartening and very discouraging.

See Past Your "No's": The message is to be patient and see past the rejections. Every "no" is simply getting you closer to the "big yeses" that God is waiting to give you.

A Few "Yeses" Are Enough: In the end, just 300 "yeses" in a lifetime are more than enough to fulfill all the dreams and destiny you can imagine. Today, "May God YES you."
