HIS Encouragement #20

Good morning, and welcome to His Encouragement Thursday! I don’t know about you, but Thursdays are my struggle day of the week. By Thursday, I have already been working hard at school and at home, and I just wish it would hurry up and be Friday already. LOL! I definitely need a little extra Jesus time on Thursdays.

Trisha, my blogger friend at Joy of Reading, and I decided on calling this post “His Encouragement” because our real source of peace, strength, and security can only come from Jesus Christ. He, and He alone, is our constant! We pray and hope that these Thursday posts become a real encouragement to you and help you end your week strong in God’s love and purpose for you. God bless!

Today’s Thursday Encouragement comes from:

Isaiah 26:4 (ESV)

Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord God is an everlasting rock.

I like the word “everlasting” as it’s used in this context. I love the idea that God is there for me eternally and continually. It’s the one thing I can always truly count on.

God is forever and always my firm foundation and support. This is what it means when He refers to Himself as a rock. To me, this is such a lovely picture of my Abba Father. He is the best of Fathers because He will always be there to wipe away my tears, to listen to my problems, and to guide me through my days. I can count on God indefinitely!

This verse brings me such comfort today. I hope it allows you a bit of comfort, too. God bless!
