The Climb

"God, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer's; he makes me tread on my high places." - Habakkuk 3:19

"Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory." - Psalm 73:23-24

In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and said, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!" - Isaiah 6:1-3

Dear God,

Life can be like climbing a mountain! There are so many different paths to choose. While it may seem impossible to climb this mountain of life, You are always with me holding my hand to guide me and lead me safely on the steep mountains. It is both easy and hard. You have gifts for me along the way. These gifts are to remind me that You are with me.

Thank You.

In Jesus' Name,

Amen

Run to Me

"Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory." - Psalm 73:23-24

"The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe." - Proverbs 18:10

Thank You.

In Jesus' Name, 

Amen

You'll Never Lose Me

"Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you." - Deuteronomy 31:6

We put no obstacle in anyone's way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry, but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger; by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love; bu truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left; through honor and dishonor, through slander and praise. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true; as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as punished, and yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything. - II Corinthians 6:3-10

"Nevertheless, I am continually with you; you hold my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will receive me to glory." - Psalm 73:23-24

Dear God, 

I can lose everything but I will still always have You.

Thank You.

In Jesus' Name, 

Amen
