DAILY?READINGS: Joshua 14-15; Isaiah 10:5-34; 1 Thess. 1 to 2:12
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
Many of us go through trials and testings, and some have sorrowful feelings unknown to even those dearest to us. At times the problems appear “one step too far.” Being on the edge leaves you with a feeling (as the apostle Paul had), that to be with Christ would be far better! Be patient, wait on God, and the reality of the “escape route” will be shown you. —Brian Russell
Let your drooping heart be glad, march, in heavenly armour clad,
Fight, nor think the battle long, victory soon shall be your song. —K. White
