I will be with you

It is easier to walk in faith when life is easy – no worries or concerns. But when we have trials, worries, God calls us to leave our comfort zones -it is harder to walk in faith. Later today, I leave on a medical mission to Ukraine. I have never been on a flight longer than 4.5 hours. I am traveling to a part of the world I have never been, with a group of people I have only met briefly. And it is not a good time to be out of touch for 2 weeks. Last week, my father received some concerning medical news. Tests are being done and he will receive results while I am gone. Psalm 18:2 “The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”

When God calls us out, He promises to be with us. He is calling us out for Him and His purposes, not calling us out because of anything we did or can do in our own strength. It is to glorify Him. Joshua 1:9 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”
