DAILY READINGS: Judges 8; Isaiah 29; 1 Corinthians 8
For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness. 2 Samuel 22:29
When physical illness or bereavement enter a believer’s life, the saints will often rally round, as they can see the suffering. Sometimes, however, the "not so obvious" trials leave one in the dark alone—a darkness which can be felt. Never forget that these situations are known by our God. Rest assured that He understands your "low estate," and, more than that, will bring you into the light again. You will be a better and more understanding Christian because of the valley experience. —Brian Russell
My times are in Thy hands,
Why should I doubt or fear?
My father’s hand will never cause,
His child a needless tear. —W. F. Lloyd
