Show notes
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Joshua 1:9 which says "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”
"When our plans don't go as we hoped, it's easy to feel discouraged. When you take a beating a work day in and day out it's easy to become discouraged. When you look at all of your friends having children, and you are still struggling, it's easy to feel discouraged.
Every single day presents itself with new obstacles that can paralyze us in fear, or discouragement.
Oh but this verse gives us hope. It promises us that the Lord, will be with us wherever we go.
We can become so distant at times. We can run far away. Feel inadequate. Let that self harming voice creep it's way in. We can stop serving those around us. We can start seeking attention in other things, but God will be there. At all times.
There's no point in running. He will be there. So don't turn away from him. Turn towards him. Everyday we get the opportunity to step boldly into His promises for us. He promises a future. He promises us light in darkness. He promises us life more abundant. He promises us shelter, and refuge. He promises to fight our battles for us.
He can do all things. Therefore we can do all things through Him. "
