Hebrews 11:1
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

What of Today’s Verse

While the road ahead of us may be filled with questions and concerns, we can look back and see the many ways God has acted in our behalf to get us to the places we need to be. We see his work through history and we can take assurance that his promises are true and his victory in us is assured.

Prayer

Almighty God, I believe that before there was a world, you existed. I trust that even now you sustain our world with your word of grace. I am confident that before the future arrives you are already there preparing it for us. Help me when I worry to remember my faith and to press on trusting that you are there. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Words of Wisdom

If you gain a mature companion a fellow traveler, right-living, enlightened, overcoming all dangers go with him, gratified, mindful.

If you don’t gain a mature companion a fellow traveler, right-living, enlightened, go alone like a king renouncing his kingdom, like the elephant in the Matanga wilds, his herd.
