For the Lord will go before you, and the God of Israel will be your rear guard (Isaiah 52: 12)
How wonderful are these words?
The Lord is ahead of us in our path of life, preparing the way for us, as we seek Him, to guide us through paths unknown. Likewise, the Lord "has our back". The Lord will protect us.
As we follow the uncertain paths of our lives, may these words give us hope and strength. May these words remind us that our God is 100% committed to us -- all of us -- and will surround us in our walk of faith.
These words give us confidence, born from our baptism, to live life. We can't always control our lives, if we can ever truly control our lives. We may not know what the future holds, but we know who holds the future. And we know who has promised to hold us into and through the future.
The Lord is our "point-man". The Lord has our back. Together, we got this!
Lord, may we live with faith and trust that you are always with us. Amen.
