"Strengthen the hands that are feeble, make firm the knees that are weak. Say to those whose hearts that are frightened: Be strong, fear not! Here is you God!" —Isaiah 35:3-4
After reading Isaiah 35:3-4 this morning, I feel like God is speaking to me. I’m 82 years old and my husband, Karl, is 84 and we are challenged each day with doubts, weakened bodies, issues that stress us, and frightened hearts when health problems appear out of nowhere. This is why we start each morning with open Bibles and choose to listen to God telling us not to fear, for He is near. Bible verses like the one above will remind us to see the Holy way in which we are invited to walk and to have “Joy on the Journey”. Joy, not fear.
I am going to read this verse again and know it was written for us.
