Since the beginning of summer, ever since we signed up with Celebrate Children International, and began this part of the journey, we have been doing a Bible Study at church on the book of Joshua. We read repeatedly, "Be strong and very courageous."
In Joshua, the Israelites were told by God to cross over the Jordan and take the land that had been given to them as an inheritance and a promise from the Lord. He told them to trust Him and to start walking ...
They stood up and assembled themselves. They set one foot into the Jordan and the Lord pushed back the waters on all sides. Then they passed through on dry land. The Lord made a way for them when there was no way. The land was theirs, but they still had to fight to conquer it and to receive the Lord's promises for them.
Every week, the Lord spoke to us through the Book of Joshua. Encouraging us to keep walking, to keep praying, to keep trusting, to keep fighting, to be strong and very courageous.
