Be strong and courageous.
Do not be frightened,
and do not be dismayed,
for the LORD your God
is with you
wherever you go.
Joshua 1. 9
(Even in what we face today.
Not that there is nothing
to be afraid of,
for there is always something.
Not that God will show up
at some point,
for He is already right here.
But we can approach this situation
and navigate it differently
because God is with us.
Even in this hard place,
He covers us with His strength.
Strength in ancient Hebrew
means to tie fast
and to bind strongly.
He has a strong hold on us.
We can bind ourselves to Him.
Different heart, different journey,
way different outcome.)
O LORD,
We come to You in our fears
of both known and unknown
adversaries.
Help us to take Your hand in this
and walk with You through
whatever is on our path today.
Empower us to pay attention
and to act wisely,
aware of Your Presence
and live differently
because we know You.
Bring both Your strength
and Your wonders
for Your sake,
for Your Kingdom,
and in Your holy name.
