Joshua 14:1-15:63; Isaiah 10:5-34; 1 Thessalonians 1:1-2:12
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5 NKJV
Who is this coming up from the wilderness, leaning upon her beloved? Song of Solomon 8:5 NKJV
I love connecting Scripture with Scripture and here is one example. We are not to lean upon our own understanding in any situation, but we are to lean upon the Lord. How very intimate this is. It is like the apostle John leaning on the Lord’s breast (John 13:23). When we lean on Him, we are already on the way up from any wilderness we might be in. —Eleanor Isaacson
Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms,
Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms. —Elisha Hoffman
