Poems of Promise

The world is a scary place. Many people live day-to-day in fear. Anxiety mayoriginate from several different sources. Financial worries, job insecurity,rejection, marital problems, crime, illness, loneliness, loss of a loved one, oftenlead to discouragement and hopelessness. Just tuning in to the day s news isenough to drive anyone to despair. While we may face such dreadful experiences,our Creator does not want us to live this way. The pages of the Bible are rich in God s promises along with the faithful fulfillmentof each one of those promises. Study His promises to Abraham and the Hebrewslaves in Egypt. Learn about the promises to the children of Israel He madethrough His prophets. God sent the promised Messiah through Jesus Christ to payfor the sins of all mankind. Throughout the New Testament, the promises of Godwere fulfilled and promises yet to come assured. God s faithfulness is confirmedas He delivers hope for the promises yet to come. Poems of Promise is a daily devotional based on God s Word. The messages fromHis Word are sure, positive promises for a troubled and weary world. Each day sdevotion is intended to be a reprieve from the troubles of this world by focusingon hope through inspiration. Read a devotion each day knowing that God is aboveall things, that He only wants the best for you, and that He loves you very much. I pray that this devotional serves you well. The simplistic poetic form is designed tostimulate emotion, while offering a somewhat different and creative presentationfrom other devotionals. My sincere wish is that this book offers inspiration andpeace of mind as you draw closer to our Lord and Savior.
