Let us hold fast to the profession of our faith without wavering; for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23
I’m trusting the word of God today to encourage my heart and strengthen my faith. Life is not always easy as we all know and experience. It’s too easy to become discouraged and lose heart. I love this verse because it reminds me there is so much more beyond what we see day to day. There are promises that have been made by the One who does not break promises and who remains faithful even when we are faithless.
To him who is able to keep [us] from falling and to present [us] before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy— to the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and authority, through Jesus Christ our Lord, before all ages, now and forevermore! Amen.
May your joy today be found in the One who is Faithful and True.
