Yesterday's Bible reading was from Joshua 1:1-18. In verse 9, God says to Joshua, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged: for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
This was spoken to Joshua as he faced a huge challenge... to fill the shoes of a great leader, Moses and lead his people into an unknown future.
All of us face challenges in life --- challenges of huge proportions where we are called to do great things and to go places where we've not been before. In the midst of the challenges we face, God speaks the same words... "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged: for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go."
For every challenge before us, there is a promise. While the challenge changes, the promise does not! No matter what the challenge is, the promise is... be strong and courageos... for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go!
And the neat thing is that we can be strong and courageous because of the promise!
