DAILY READINGS: Ruth 1; Isaiah 41; 2 Corinthians 1
O our God, wilt Thou not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon Thee. 2 Chronicles 20:12
What difficulties are you facing today? Family pressures or financial pressures; health concerns or work concerns; problems at home or problems in the church; private failure or public fiasco? Adversities like these can mount up in a moment, often without warning and threaten to undo even the most seasoned of saints. Jeshoshaphat’s path in overcoming discouragement can be ours as well. Look to the Lord alone. Call upon Him for help and He will meet our need and show us what to do. —Mark Kolchin
Let us go alone in secret, and unburden all our care,
At the feet of our Redeemer, in simple, earnest prayer. —Fanny Crosby
