TOMORROW'S TERR0RS

GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS

365 DEVOTIONS FROM OUR DAILY BREAD

TOMORROW’S TERRORS

READ:  Hebrews 13:1-8

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday,
today, and forever.  Hebrews 13:8

Peter Marshall, whose dynamic preaching attracted crowds of people, died suddenly on the morning of January 25, 1949, at the age of forty-six.  In one of his sermons he had said:  “When the clock strikes for me, I shall go, not one minute early, and not one minute late.  Until then, there is nothing to fear.  I know that the promises of God are true, for they have been fulfilled in my life time and time again.  Jesus still teaches and guides and protects and heals and comforts, and still wins our complete trust and our love.”

Do you and I share that same fear-dispelling conviction?  Can each of us, like David, say to our Lord, “My times are in Your hand” (Psalm 31:15).  Are we confident that God holds us in His almighty hands?  Can we boldly say, “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear.  What can man do to me?”  (Hebrews 13:6).

True, we may have concern about the days ahead.  As Scripture reminds us, we “do not know what will happen tomorrow” (James 4:14).  But we do know that whatever happens He will always be with us (Hebrews 13:5).  That knowledge can lighten any burden of worry about the future.

Some anxiety about the process of dying is normal.  Yet, by the grace of God and by the comfort of His spirit, we can face tomorrow’s terrors with courage.   VCG

I don’t know about tomorrow,
Nor what coming days will bring;
But I know my Lord is with me,
And His praise my heart will sing. -Fitzhugh

Worry can do a lot of things to you;
prayer can do a lot of thins for you.
