>Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You 
>need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you 
>will receive what he has promised.
>--Hebrews 10:35-36
>New International Version
>
>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>Boy there are some tough times in life! They're inescapable. That's 
>when our confidence in the Lord's salvation and our relationship 
>with him get tested! It is one thing to sing "it is well with my 
>soul" at the end of a peel-the-paint worship service, but it is 
>quite another to be able to sing it when they auction your house off 
>at the courthouse steps or you've lost a child to death. That's when 
>the commitment to be who we want to be overrides the weakness of 
>what we feel. Faith can't take a holiday when we travel through the 
>suburbs of hell or we'll never find our way out. So don't throw it 
>away. Be like Job or Jeremiah who both argued and complained to God. 
>Just don't quit.
>
>MY PRAYER...
>Holy and Almighty God, today is a good day. But I am profoundly 
>aware that some of those I love are wrestling with throwing away 
>their confidence in your love, mercy, grace, peace, and deliverance. 
>Please use me, but even more I pray that you use your Holy Spirit to 
>renew their hearts. I pray that you intervene directly to change the 
>course of events and give them relief. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

The LORD your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.
         ~ Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)
