My name is Bianca Watis Oltoff, and I'm excited to be with you this week for Daily

Drive with Lake Point Church.

I'm so glad that we get to dive into this week's podcast because we've been tackling

the tough topic of developing grit.

We know resilience is important, and we discovered yesterday that perseverance is a choice.

And today, I want to make it simple and say it very plainly. Don't quit. Let's check out what Paul the Apostle has to say

about our mindset out of 2 Corinthians 10 verses 3 through 5. For though we walk in the flesh, we are not

waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our

warfare are not of the flesh, but of divine power. They have divine power to destroy strongholds.

We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and we take

captive. We take every thought captive to obey Christ. How do you bounce back from situations

that try to break you and knock you down? You guessed it, by developing grit and strengthening

your resilience. As we learned yesterday, grit is something that you can grow, that you can

acquire. But the truth is, is that it's hard to take new ground and move forward when you're depleted.

It's painful to get back up when you're depressed.

It's challenging to maintain hope and faith when you're feeling disillusioned.
