Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD
your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Excerpt:
If you’re being called to something new and have God’s peace about it, take that first step — push through your fear —and watch God show up and show off.
For just as God promised Joshua, He’ll be with you and I wherever we go.
Dear God, thank You for calling me into new and exciting things. Thank You for knowing me so intimately that You know all my fears. As You call me to step out in courage, please continue to remind me that You are with me, You never leave me, and You have equipped me. I trust that, as I obey You, You will do all You’ve promised. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
