Our Daily Bread: Hope and Strength for Times of Illness預覽
All Kinds Of Weather
When Jesus sent His disciples out, He gave them this promise: "I am with you always, even to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:20). Literally, the word always means "all the days," according to Greek scholars Jamieson, Fausett, and Brown. Jesus didn't simply say, "always," but "all the days." That takes into account all our various activities, the good and bad circumstances surrounding us, the varied responsibilities we have through the course of our days, the storm clouds and the sunshine. Our Lord is present with us no matter what each day brings. It may be a day of joy or sadness, of sickness or of health, of success or failure. No matter what happens to us today, our Lord is walking beside us, strengthening us, loving us, filling us with faith, hope and love. As He envelops us with quiet serenity and security, our foes, fears, afflictions, and doubts begin to recede.
We can bear up in any setting and circumstance because we know the Lord is at hand, just as He told Paul in Acts 18:10, "I am with you." Practice God's presence, stopping in the midst of your busy day to say to yourself, "The Lord is here." And pray that you will see Him who is invisible—and see Him everywhere. —David Roper
Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. Isaiah 55:6
