DAILY READINGS: 2 Samuel 20; Jeremiah 4:3-31; Galatians 5:10-26
Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the
LORD Jehovah is my strength and my song; He also is become my
salvation. Isaiah 12:2
Fear debilitates and in life there is much to cause anxiety. Very often
help is needed to surmount fear and the irrational behaviour it
sometimes incites. Here, Isaiah has the answer, “I will trust.” Our
trust, like his, should be in the Lord at all times and in every circumstance.
He promises to become our strength, our song and our
salvation. That is enough. Indeed, it is everything that we need, not
only for survival but also for progress. We should not fear what man
can do. We can do all things through Christ. —Roy Hill
I will not be afraid, I will not be afraid;
I will look upward, and travel onward, and not be afraid. —Ellis Govan
