It is early Friday morning the 15th of October. One week from today I will be ending my brief employment at our local Burger King as a senior store manger trainee. It was another place of training for reigning and now the next chapter begins. Karen and I have been commanded to: "Step Out By Faith & Watch God Show Up!" But is this easy when you have no visible means of support, health insurance to contend with and all the other unanswered questions about the future. While traveling home from work I heard an interview with an author who wrote a book of devotions on hymns of the church. He "just happened" to mention How Firm A Foundation and that it was taken from Isaiah 41:10. Arriving home I immediately went to the Word and found such comfort and encouragement. Redpath comments on Isaiah 41 as the great "I Will Chapter in the Bible." No fewer than fourteen times in the scope of these verses does God reinforce His authority with the promise, 'I will'! May these "I Wills" bless and encourage you this day that as we trust in Him He will surely bring all good things to pass! Hallelujah!
