STRONG TO THE END!
Isaiah 41:18 – Devotional
Isaiah 41:18
“I will open rivers in high places, and fountains in the midst of the valleys: I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water.”
We are in the midst of the 2021 Olympic Games, held this year in Japan. In addition to the stress of the fierce competition are the unusually hot temperatures. It gives graphic meaning to the phrase; the heat of competition.
I know that many of the competitors are born again Christians and regardless of whether or not they win a medal, they have a reward in heaven waiting for them that surpasses anything this old world can offer.
As a young husband, to make ends meet, I worked an extra job as a roofer. On miserably hot days we would start work at first light and tried to get as much done as possible before we could not stand the heat any longer.
The thing that kept us going was the knowledge that relief was coming soon. We sometimes feel that the stresses of this life are more than we can endure, but that is not the case. Our reward is waiting for us and the Lord encourages is to remain STRONG TO THE END!
Blessings dear hearts walk with God today and become a blessing!
