EXHAUSTED—BUT STILL CHASING. That may be one of the most powerful descriptions of Gideon and his 300 men in Judges 8. https://patrickryanlewis.com/2026/08/14/exhausted-but-still-chasing-persistence-compromise-and-justice-in-judges-84-21/ They had already fought a tremendous battle. They were hungry. They were exhausted. They asked fellow Israelites for help and were refused. The people who should have encouraged them doubted they would succeed. But they kept going. Judges 8:4–21 reminds us that being tired does not necessarily mean God is finished with what He has called us to do. Sometimes faithfulness means continuing to pray when you haven’t seen the answer. Continuing to serve when nobody seems to notice. Continuing to resist temptation when the battle feels repetitive. Continuing to obey when other people refuse to stand beside you. Continuing to trust God when you cannot yet see the outcome. Gideon’s story also gives us sobering lessons about unbelief, compromise, leadership, justice, and the danger of standing on the sidelines when God calls us to participate. You can be tired and still be faithful. You can be discouraged and still be obedient. Sometimes the next act of faith isn’t something dramatic. Sometimes it is simply taking the next step.

St. Cajetan St. Cajetan was born on October 1, 1480 and his baptismal name was Gaetano dei Contidi Tiene. He studied law in Padua and got a degree on civil and cannon law at age 24 years. He was working as a diplomat in the Venetian Republic for Pope Julius-II. He was ordained as a priest during the year 1516. He founded a congregation named “The Oratory of Divine Love”. The Bishop of Chieti diocese, Giovanni Pietro Carafa was the first superior of this Oratory, who later became Pope Pius-IV. The members of the Oratory are also called as “theatines” in the name of the city of Chieti, which is called as “Theate” in Latin. In the year 1533 he founded a house in Naples to fight against Lutheranism and to check its spreading. When he fell ill, he slept on a wooden board. When the doctors told him to take rest on a comfortable bed, he refused and said that his savior died on a cross and at least let him die on wood. He died on August 7, 1547. He was beatified by Pope Urban-VIII on October 8, 1629 and also canonized on April 12, 1671. He is the patron saint of workers, job seekers and un-employed people. #followchrist #workers #jobseeker #un-employed #employment #unemployment #workers #job #service #faith #followjesus #dieforchrist #leave #world
