Worry
Growing Spiritually
Bible Verse: Deuteronomy 31:8
“Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you.”
Reflect and Respond:
God knows we can become fearful and discouraged at times so He's encouraging us in this verse in a very personal way, telling us that He's on the path, not only with us, but before us. What does this illustration mean for you today?
Prayer:
Father, I know that You are present with me and that You have gone before me. I ask for Your peace in exchange for my worries, my fears, and my discouragment. I pray that my life would reflect Your glory. Amen.
We look forward to your comments and questions below!

I am never alone, when I am with God.
I am having a difficult time choosing faith over fear right now. It seems I am constantly overthinking about things and sometimes it’s hard to get a grip. God has helped me through so many things in my life and healed so many hurts so I shouldn’t be so worried. Jesus I just want to feel your peace today.
Amen and Amen
Thank you that is such a big encouragement
I love this Bible verse & know it in my very soul..God has Blessed me with such peace & contentment it is unexplainable.. How I pray I could pour this into my daughter-in-law..She is in her 40's & So Full of worry & fear & anxiety she can hardly function..Life is so difficult for my son & her both..I never thought I'd say this, but I'm thankful they dont have children..They are Believers, that's why this fear is So hard to deal with. My son has a strong faith & is fearless..Such a hard time for them.
