Are you afraid of not being able to endure to the end after having thought of yourself as a child of God? Do you hear, even as a child of His, that ultimately you will be proven nothing but an outcast? Is that is your fear take this word of grace to His throne and plead it: “Though the mountains be shaken and the the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed.” (Isa 54:10).

If you have lost the sweet sense of the Savior's presence and are seeking Him with a sorrowful heart, remember these promises: “Return to me, and I will return to you” (Mal 3:7) and “For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with deep compassion I will bring you back” (Isa 54L7) Whatever your fears or wants, feast your faith on God’s own words. Then return to the Bank of Faith with check signed by your Father’s own hand, saying to Him” Remember your word to your servant, for you have given me hope.”
