“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine!”When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, Nor will the flame burn you. “For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior”
Isaiah 43:1b-3a (New American Standard Bible)
Abba Father, how amazing is Your love for us! You love us so much that You sacrificed Your only begotten son, Jesus Christ and put Him on the cross to redeem us from sin and death. You love each one of us personally and deal with us individually. What shall we do unto You in return for all the goodness you have showered upon our otherwise worthless life? Yes, we will confess and praise You, O Lord our God, with our whole heart; and we will glorify Your mighty name forevermore. We will declare your faithfulness in the midst of the people. It’s so comforting for us to remember that when everything else may fade away, Your ever abiding presence will still be with us. Father, hold us close to You. Let us feel You today. In Jesus’ name. Amen!
