Exhortation

Joshua receives the exhortation. “Be strong and courageous.” Hearing it loud and clear. Multiple times.

From the Lord. And from the people. (Joshua 1:6,7,9,18)

He’s stepping into leadership after one of the greatest leaders of all time. Moses. 

Certainly not for the faint of heart, this. Leading the multitudes. And entering the Promised Land.

Then. At the end of his life. He delivers the exhortation.

Promises

Promises made and kept, anchor the heart. 

Steady our steps. 

Bring comfort in the dark. And courage for the day to day. 

Wholehearted commitment and follow-through reflects and reveals the faithfulness of our God. 

As we celebrate Christmas each year, my husband and I also rejoice in another anniversary. Remembering promises we made to one another. 

Promises. December 1987.
