Daily Bread - Faith in the Middle

Jan 7, 2026

The middle can be one of the hardest places to stay faithful.


It’s the space between promise and fulfillment, obedience and outcome, prayer and breakthrough. This is where many believers grow weary, not because they stopped believing, but because the waiting feels long and the progress feels unseen.


In this Daily Bread devotional, we talk about faith that endures the middle. The kind of faith that keeps showing up, keeps trusting, and keeps obeying even when emotions fade and answers feel delayed. Scripture reminds us that God often does His deepest work in the middle, forming our character and strengthening our trust.


If you’re feeling tired, discouraged, or tempted to quit, this word is meant to encourage you. God has not forgotten you. Your faithfulness matters. And what feels like delay is often preparation.


Stay faithful. Don’t quit in the middle.
