DAILY?READINGS: Gen. 18; Job 21; Matt. 10:1-23

Who is among you…that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God. Isaiah 50:10

Following the onset of glaucoma, my eyesight deteriorated to the point where I was registered “blind”. Thankfully, my “darkness” is not total; nevertheless there is no disputing the fact that a big change has entered my life. As I review the years of fading vision, I probe my mind: am I learning the lessons that the Lord wants to teach me? Am I truly accepting of His will for me? It is only in quiet acceptance that His peace is to be found! —George Hall

Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blest;
Finding as He promised, perfect peace and rest.
