Joshua 1:7
Verse of the week:
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go.
Joshua 1:7
From my newsletter:
Success! I think everyone as a different definition of success! The American Heritage dictionary defines success as the achievement of something desired, planned or attempted. 2 The gain of fame or prosperity. I think the world concentrates too much on the second definition. When we should probably look at the last word in the first definition-attempted! How can you be a success, if you don’t even attempt it? I know I often fall into the trap of defining my success for the day by how many tasks I have crossed off on my to do list. When I should be content that I crossed off even one! If that one item was done to the best of my ability and whole-heartedly. God has a plan for me and it may not be to fulfill my to do list!
I realized that the intention for the verse of the week is for you to use it in your own faithbooking. For now though, we will set aside our “photo” faithbooks and concentrate on the journal faithbooks as you journal about your thoughts on these verses with me. And someday, I will be ready to work on our photos and passing down our faith! Please be patient with me...
Supporting verses:
Isaac asked his son, "How did you find it so quickly, my son?" "The LORD your God gave me success," he replied. Gen 27:20
When his master saw that the LORD was with him and that the LORD gave him success in everything he did Gen 39:3
