A Verse to Live by

"No trial has come to you but what is human. God is faithful and will not let you be tried beyond your strength;
but with the trial he will also
provide a way out, so that you may be able to bear it."
1 Cor 10:13

Laying the Foundation

Woke up a little early today and, after the morning pet-fest with Sedona, spent a little extra time with my devotional. In the course of reading suggested scripture, I came across two passages from Psalms that really encapsulate where I am now spiritually and emotionally:

  • Psalm 13:6 "I trust in your faithfulness. Grant my heart joy in your help, that I may sing of the Lord, 'How good our God has been to me!"
  • Psalm 16:8-9 "I keep the Lord always before me; with the Lord at my right, I shall never be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad, my soul rejoices; my body also dwells secure."

Today, I enter the second week of radiation. Today, with the love and faithfulness of God, I am well armed to handle the challenges along life's path and it feels so good!
