Thus Far the Lord Helped Us

[Delayed Post]

Happy happy new year 2016!

"Thus far the LORD helped us." ( 1 Samuel 7:12) The phrase "thus far" points to the past when He saw us through poverty, wealth, sickness or health, whether at home or abroad, or on land or sea, whether in honor, dishonor, difficulties, joy, trials, triumph, prayer, or temptation — "thus far the LORD helped"! These words also point forward for there are more trials, joys, temptations, battles, defeats, victories, prayers, answers, toils, and strength yet to come. These are then followed by sickness, old age, disease, and death.  But dear believer, "be strong and take heart" (Ps. 27:14) for He who "thus far" has helped you will help you all your journey through." —Charles Spurgeon

May we all see very clearly God's hand in each of our own journeys leading us at all times. God bless us all! :)
