Strength

Psalm 91:14-16

14 “Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honor them.
16 with long life I will satisfy them,
And show them my salvation.”

Isaiah 41:10

“I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee.”

Wow…what a promise...I’d like to ask you, my friend, who in this world makes you a promise like this? Who in this world can you trust above all doubt? Who in this world died for you?
During a Bible study this week, I was told by our teacher that Jesus is found in every page of the Bible; that if one doesn’t find Him during each reading, one should try again...
I think the same truth applies to life...Jesus is present every single day of our lives.
The only difference is that when we let one day go by without Him, we can’t turn back the page.
I wonder how my life would have been had I always known this.
I wonder...
Anyways...Thank God there’s always the future:”in a linear conception of time, the future is the portion of the timeline that is still to occur”

When I think about why God would make us live in a linear structure of time, I wonder if this is another one of His gifts. Think about it, if we lived in a timeless existence, how could the finite (us) relate to the infinite (God)?
Well...I guess this falls off the track a little bit...

In our limited comprehension of Him who gave us life, we can always find comfort in His unchanging Word.

Psalm 91 has given me strength and comfort beyond words; it has been many times my survival kit.

My prayer is that TODAY you will find yourself renewed by Him. His survival kit is all you need.

In love,

Janet.
