Comforting Words

Dear friends, I've returned from my travels and I've missed writing these daily notes of encouragement. I'm blessed as I post these thoughts and I trust that you are as well. I'll try to make up for the days I've missed. Have a great weekend and I trust that you will be enriched in your spirit as you worship the King on Sunday!

He's Leading the Way
(Comforting words by Moses)

"Do not be terrified, do not be afraid of them. The Lord your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as He did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes, and in the desert. There you saw how the Lord your God carried you, as a father carries his son, all the way you went until you reached this place. In spite of this, you did not trust in the Lord your God, who went ahead of you on your journey, in fire by night and in a cloud by day, to search out places for you to camp and to show you the way you should go." - Deuteronomy 1:29-31

He still leads the way today! Why do we fear? He is the Lord our God and He bids us follow Him.
Be encouraged today, dear friends!

It is so nice to hear you again on your Barnabas Blog David..

Wow! This post has three labels on it, eh...comfort, fear and trust.
The three go together for sure in the verses that you have quoted.

I wonder if you are tested in these verses that you put in here David and that is why you know exactly what to put..Not from head knowledge but from your heart,

I hope that all is going well with the health problems that you are having. You have been so brave about the whole thing.

Take care now and may the Lord continue to bless you and as Billy Graham would say, MAKE you a blessing to us!....From Terry
