THE BEST THING ABOUT THE FUTURE IS THAT IT COMES ONLY ONE DAY AT A TIME.– Abraham Lincoln — The Bible says in Deuteronomy 33:25 The bolts of your gates will be iron and bronze, and your strength will equal your days.
Read that verse also in the RSV.
Sometimes we want the strength for several days or several years. Or even the strength we need when we are on our deathbeds. But we don’t have it and don’t need it.
ONE DAY AT A TIME!
The Lord taught me that once when I was in Batu in Indonesia on my way to Germany. I still remember the morning, when I found a booklet about that in my room.
