Today's Bible Reading: Joshua 7-9; Luke 1:21-38
As I read about Joshua and Israel's conquest of Canaan, I'm reminded about the strength and power of faith. In just one generation, the entire nation went from fear to faith. They were complainers and now they are conquerers. It didn't happen overnite; it took a while to learn to trust and obey - and tho they had to go thru a lot of chastisement and rebuke, they were never forsaken by God. And they grew in faith. The terror of the Lord was upon their enemies.
Victories await you and I today! The Lord has already gone before us. If we trust Him and obey Him, he will guide us thru the battles of today - and at the end of the day we will give thanks and say, "Blessed be the name of the Lord for He has done great things!"
On the home front, Joyce began the first of 10 radiation treatments on her leg and then had to get her blood drawn again in prep for next weeks meeting with her oncologist. But before we did all that we had a little fun with a short trip to the mall. She hadn't been since around Thanksgiving! I think we both had a different perspective of the mall - both her in a wheel chair and I the wheel chair pusher. Several stores we went into were far from wheelchair friendly.
In any case it was still good for her to get out.
Hope and pray your day is blessed!
In His Arm's, Pat

I am so happy to hear that Joyce was able to get out. God Bless both of you for your awesome testimony of faith. It is so easy for us to claim we have faith but you two are truly walking it out. We could all learn from you both as you walk through this trial. I can see you holding on to God's hand the whole way.
ReplyDeleteKeep up the fight! As we continue to lift you and Joyce up in prayer know this...the steadfast love of the Lord never fails. His mercies are new every morning.
ReplyDeleteWe love you dearly Pat and Joyce.
