Joshua 1:9 says, “Do not be afraid or discouraged, for I, the Lord your God, am with you wherever you go.”
It is hardly surprising that Joshua, called to take over from an outstanding leader like Moses, should think himself inadequate for the task. But he went forward in the strength of God’s repeated promise, “I am with you wherever you go.”
Sometimes we too seem crushed by the weight... of life’s responsibilities, and we feel we just cannot cope. We would do well then to pause and realize that we do not work alone. We can claim that same promise made to Joshua and countless other men and women since, the promise that God will be close behind us all the time.
Our difficulties will not necessarily disappear, but we will discover a source of inner strength enabling us to see things in their true perspective. And our faith will grow stronger as we learn that God’s power will sustain us in every situation.

My prayer for all of us today is, “Dear Lord, only You know all about the heavy load I have to bear. I claim your promise that through Your Spirit You will walk beside me for the rest of my life’s journey. Amen.

Always remember, God’s Spirit empowers you for your appointed tasks.
God Bless
