Faithful Monday

: : Faithful Monday will be the day once a week where I will tell you how God has been faithful to me. Hopefully this will be encouraging to you and me on the most dreaded day of the week! MONDAYS! : :

So this week I'd like to tell about a verse that God revealed to me in late fall of last year.
In that time my parents and I were still praying about me going to Costa Rica. I was in my room reading my assigned Bible reading for the day. As I do a lot of the time I started to daydream. I was thinking about Costa Rica and started having doubts as well as worrying about things that could happen. I looked down and this was the verse that was staring back at me.

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

This verse has been a rock for me in the preparation process. When doubt and fear try to creep in and take over. In my head it was like God was looking at me and saying "Do you see that? I will be with you WHEREVER you go!"

He is guiding me and teaching me to rely on Him.
