Deuteronomy 31:6 NASB "Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or in dread of them, for the Lord your God is the One who is going with you. He will not desert you or abandon you."It's one of my favorites! Today's verse speaks of our part and His. There are certain verses in the Bible that I have memorized and use to keep my life focused and today's verse is one of them. It contains two parts - our job and His Response. We are to be strong and courageous, never giving up or giving in but standing firm. And His Response is that He will never leave us - that's no matter what!! We will all go through those tough times, maybe the loss of a loved one, the physical struggle and pain of a disease but if we are strong and courageous, and face things head on, God will not leave us alone. He may bring people into our life to hold our hand, listen to our struggles, help our need so let's never give up or give in. He will see us through! peace, tom
