OUR STRENGTH

“I WILL love thee, O LORD, my strength.  The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.  I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.”

Psalm 18:1-3 KJV

I have been in bed most of the time for the last three days.  I’m not sure if I have the flu or just a bad cold but it has left me very weak.  However, God is faithful and He has helped me write a devotion every day.  When we need strength, God is with us to help us and deliver us.

Mylon Le Fevre wrote a beautiful hymn “WITHOUT HIM”.  It is so true that we can’t do anything without Jesus.  I am so glad that God loves us so much that He gave His beloved Son not only to die on the cross for our sins but also to be our best Friend.  Jesus is a Friend Who never leaves us, not even for a minute.

Heavenly Father, thank You for the privilege You have given me to serve Your Son and for trusting me to serve Him.  Jesus, thank You for being my best Friend and for never leaving me.  I love You, Heavenly Father.  I love You, Jesus.  I love You, Holy Spirit.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
