DAILY?READINGS: 2 Samuel 13; Zephaniah 1; Galatians 1
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Isaiah 41:10
This is a precious promise for whatever we face. First, God tells us where He is, “I am with you.” Then, who He is, “I am your God.” Lastly, He says what He will do. His promise is threefold, “I will strengthen you, I will help you, and I will uphold you.” His presence and His power give us peace in our trials so that we need not fear nor be dismayed. Trust His promise today. —Rex Trogdon
Jesus, I am resting, resting, in the joy of what Thou art;
I am finding out the greatness of Thy loving heart.
Thou hast bid me gaze upon Thee, and Thy beauty fills my soul,
For by Thy transforming power, Thou hast made me whole. —J. S. Pigott
