Isaiah 42:16a I will lead the blind by ways they have not known….
Lord, Thank You for being steadfast and true, for seeing us, for knowing our hearts, for understanding our fears and concerns. Thank You for leading us, walking with us, carrying us on unfamiliar, frightening paths. Thank You that during these trying times, we can grow closer to You than is possible when life is smooth sailing.
Isaiah 42:16b …along unfamiliar paths I will guide them….
Lord, Unfamiliar paths can be terrifically frightening. Thank You for the surety that we do not have to forge these paths alone. Thank You for giving us light and hope through small blessings and kindnesses that remind us of Your deep love. Thank You for walking with us, for holding us, for not abandoning us in our time of need. Help us to always be mindful of Your faithful presence.
Isaiah 42:16c …I will turn darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth….
Lord, Thank You for this day and for Your fierce love and assurance that we are not alone, even in trials, especially then. Help us to feel Your peace and comfort. Help us to encourage each other. Guide our way, one step at a time. Draw us closer. Amen.
Isaiah 42:16d …These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them.
Have a blessed day.
My faith, my life, my teaching–it's all a work in progress.
