Today’s devotional comes from Max Lucado’s Grace For The Moment:
A Place of Permanence
The Lord will always lead you.
Isaiah 58:11
You’ve been there. You’ve escaped the sandy foundation of the valley and ascended his grand outcropping of granite. You’ve stepped aways from the masses and followed the Master as he led you up the winding path to the summit….
Gently your guide invites you to sit on the rock above the tree line and look out with him at the ancient peaks that will never erode. “What is necessary is still what is sure,” he confides. “Just remember:
“You’ll go nowhere tomorrow that I haven’t already been.
“Truth will still triumph….
“The victory is yours….”
The sacred summit. A place of permanence in a world of transition.
The Applause of Heaven

I love the line, “You’ll go nowhere tomorrow that I haven’t already been”. For me, I don’t think there is a more reassuring statement. We need more of those during these troubling times. Remember, what Christ said as well in the Olivet Discourse:
“And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.” – Matthew 24:6
We must remember that God is in control of all things.
May Peace be with you!
