Deliverance

You'll get through this! You fear you won't.  We all do. We feel stuck,
trapped, locked in.  Will we ever exit this pit?  Yes!  Deliverance is to
the Bible what jazz music is to Mardi Gras: bold, brassy, and everywhere.
Out of the lion's den for Daniel, the whale's belly for Jonah, and the
prison for Paul.
Through the Red Sea onto dry ground. Through the wilderness, through the
valley of the shadow of death. Through!  It's a favorite word of God's.
Isaiah 43:2 says, "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you.
when you walk through the fire, you will not be burned."
It won't be painless. Have you wept your final tear, received your last
round of chemotherapy?  Not necessarily. Does God guarantee the absence of
struggle? Not in this life. We see Satan's tricks and ploys, but God sees
Satan tripped and foiled. You'll get through this!


Thanks much.

Many Blessings,
