HE IS ALWAYS WITH ME
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
Talk about a promise! This is a big one. 'I will be with you WHEREVER you go.' That means He is with us as we go through all the days of our lives – the good ones and the bad ones. It's easy to believe this promise as we're going through the good days of life – but the hard ones?
On November 27, 2021, my husband suddenly and unexpectedly died, and I was faced with a decision: Did I really believe that promise? Did I really believe that God would be WITH me as I journeyed through some of the most painful, dark, and lonely days of my life? I definitely didn’t feel strong and courageous; I was terrified; I was discouraged - but there was this promise that I KNEW to be true: GOD IS WITH ME! His presence was evidenced in the meals people brought and the cards and texts that people sent. It was evidenced by the fact that I could sleep at night, get out of bed in the morning, and that the sun came up in the morning.
Regardless of what life circumstances you are facing – whether good or bad - as you fast today - I encourage you to focus on the fact that GOD IS WITH YOU and has promised He will ALWAYS be with you.

About this Plan
“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with your whole heart.” (Jeremiah 29:13) This is a promise that God gave His people 2,600 years ago. It was a promise that the effort to pursue God would be rewarded with finding Him. For the next 21 days, we will pray and fast as we seek our Lord. He is our Promise Keeper.
