“Fear not, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”  Isaiah 41:10 ESV


God asked a lot of Abram!  He asked him to leave what was familiar and to go where God would lead him.  Abram trusted in God and His promises so much that he was willing to go into the unknown just because that was where the Lord asked to go.  


That begs the question. . . what is the Lord asking of you?  Whatever it is, know that the Lord can be trusted!  He took care of David as a shepherd boy and He kept every promise to Abram (and everyone else for that matter).  He will take care of you too as you follow His Word and seek to serve Him.
