No matter how high and steep the mountain looks in front of you, trust Me that I am with you every step of the way. When you look up the rocky path and you wonder how you will make it, I will reach out My hand and tell you, “Fear not, I am with you.” Don’t be dismayed – remember that I am your God.  I will help you, as you scale this mountain, I will strengthen you when you feel so weak that you don’t know if you will be able to go on, and I will uphold you with My strong right arm. (Isaiah 41:10)  And when you are in a valley – a time of decision with many options and paths in front of you – don’t be discouraged, wondering which way to go. Trust Me to lead you along the right path, the best way ahead.  And if that path becomes dark, and you are having a hard time seeing the way, then I will be a light to you, and I will make the darkness light around you.

Remember that you are Mine, and I have purchased you and redeemed you when I died for you on the cross.  I died for all mankind, but not millions of faceless people – No! – I died for each one individually, specifically and personally. You are Mine!  You are My bride!  And you will be with Me for all eternity!  And I will continue to lead you along this path of life until you have finished the course, and you will hear My words of love to you, “Well done.” (2 Timothy 4:7, Matthew 25:21)
