Be Strong and Courageous: God Is Always With You
We’ve spent last week primarily talking about letting go and trusting God with his plan for us. So, I thought I would send us into the weekend with Joshua 1:9“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."”Joshua 1:9 When we go through hard times, it’s easy to feel that God has left us. But from what I’m reading, we can go with absolute knowledge that God is with us wherever we go. Just because times are hard doesn’t mean God is not at work. Our circumstances don’t define God. Therefore, we have no reason to be afraid, if the God who created Heaven and Earth is on our side, nothing can stop us. So let’s roll into the week with this simple thought, God is with me...always. I’m on vacation this week, so if my message happens to not be “exactly” on time…well, it means I’m getting some much needed rest. Treatments start back on the 18th. Be Nice. Grace wins. FMJ
