Daily Scripture 2016.07.20

Joshua 1:9 "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go."

If I asked you to do something that you're good at, how difficult would that be? Pretty easy... I may know your abilities, but more importantly, you do! But what if God asked you to do something that was YOUR WEAKNESS?

God deserves such effort but He approaches it like the True father - He encourages us to do so.

How often have we overcome obstacles, over time, AFTER we've removed ourselves from the equation? ("i can't", "i needed time"...) We truly aren't worthy of His patience & grace!

And we will succeed not because of our ability to keep God's Word, but because God's presence is with us!
