“SURVIVING THE TRAP”
- 6 days ago
- 2 min read

There is a sobering truth in knowing that not all eyes watching you are filled with admiration. Some are watching because they expected to see you fail. They remember the obstacles they placed in your path, the lies they whispered behind your back, and the pits they dug in secret. Yet, you’re still standing by the grace of God.
Your survival is not just resilience, it’s divine protection. What was meant for harm, God used for good. The traps didn’t work because God’s hand was on your life. You may not have seen every enemy or known every plot, but God did, and He covered you.
There’s a quiet strength in walking confidently past the gaze of those who wished you harm, knowing that God’s purpose is still unfolding in your life. Let your survival be your testimony. Let your perseverance be your praise. You are proof that no weapon formed against you shall prosper.
“They dug a pit in my path—but they fell into it themselves.” Psalm 57:6 (NLT)
Heavenly Father, I thank You for being my protector and my shield. Thank You for saving me from traps I didn’t even know were being set. While others watched, expecting my downfall, You lifted me up. Help me walk with humility and confidence, knowing that my survival is a testimony of Your power and grace. Let no bitterness take root in my heart, only gratitude that You fight for me. Use my story to bring glory to Your name. In Jesus’ name, Amen and To God Be The Glory!
With love, faith, and fervent prayers,
Rev. Dr. Roberta M. Heck, Chaplain
