DAILY?READINGS: Ezra 8; Daniel 9; Revelation 4

Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. Psalm 139:10

Where has God’s hand led you today? Perhaps by still waters to receive refreshment for your soul or through severe trials to test you. Possibly even the valley of the shadow of death. At such times it’s easy to question God’s faithfulness and care for us. What a comfort to know that wherever His providence has led you today—His right hand can be trusted to sustain and hold you. —E. V.

Sometimes ‘mid scenes of deepest gloom,
Sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom;
By waters still, o’er troubled sea,
Still ’tis His hand that leadeth me.
—Joseph H. Gilmore
