I Go Before...


"My Promise"

Child of my love, fear not the unknown morrow,
Dread not the new demand life makes of thee,
Thy ignorance doth hold no cause for sorrow,
Since what thou knowest not is known to me.

Wherefore go gladly to the task assigned thee,
Having my promise, needing nothing more,
Than just to know, where'er the future finds thee,
In all thy journeying I go before."

F.J.Exley

Christiane:

What an incredible poem! So true! Why do we doubt God's power, His presence, His provision, His protection?

Be enncouraged today! We prayed for you this morning during our devotions.

In His love,

David
