I enjoyed the devotional from Proverbs 31 ministries today. “Fear makes us forgetful. This is why we must purposefully look back and trace God’s hand of faithfulness in our lives.”
Do not, therefore, fling away your [fearless] confidence, for it has a glorious and great reward. For you have need of patient endurance [to bear up under difficult circumstances without compromising], so that when you have carried out the will of God, you may receive and enjoy to the full what is promised. ~Hebrews 10:35-36 (Amplified Bible)
Have a wonderful weekend!
