Be strong and courageous

Over the next several weeks I intend to give you excerpts from our reading in the Immerse: Kingdoms readings— things that catch my eye. Take a look and see which of them speak to you. Here’s today’s:

After the death of Moses the servant of the LORD, the LORD said to Joshua son of Nun, Moses’ aide: “…No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and courageous, because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore to their ancestors to give them. (Joshua 1:1,5–6)

What would you do if you were convinced that God was with you?
