Genesis 1:1-2:3; Job 1:1-2:10; Matthew 1:1-25

As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him. Colossians 2:6

Though we have committed our eternal destiny to Christ, many of us still want to control today. Yet without faith it is impossible to please God (Heb. 11:6). Therefore, faith is integral not only for our initial salvation but also for our daily fellowship with God. By trusting Him each day we find fulfillment and honour Him. If we can trust our eternal future to Him, can we not commit each day to Him? Beginning today, let’s look to Him for guidance, wisdom, and power so that in all ways we may fully please Him. —George Ferrier

Heav’nly peace, divinest comfort, here by faith in Him to dwell!
For I know, whate’er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well. —Fanny J. Crosby
