Word for Wednesday January 19th. “And Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he has been a man of war from his youth.” And David said, “The Lord who delivered me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, will deliver me from the hand of this Philistine.” And Saul said to David, “Go, and the Lord be with you!” 1 Samuel 17:33-37. St. Mary MacKillop said, “Do not let your troubles disturb your trust in God.
When I want something very much, I thank God beforehand, for I feel God will certainly grant what he has been thanked for.” Let us pray, Lord Jesus, the power of Your God is tremendous though sometimes we do not tap into it. Many things would be different in our lives if we dared adopt the stand of David; a stand of full trust in Your help in all circumstances. Give us the grace to trust You fully in all challenges which face us. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
