During Wednesday's meditation of singing, praying, and reading of God's Word at 12:30 and or at 6 p.m., we direct your attention to Isaiah chapter 43.

    As you meditate on the Scriptures notice that we can find comfort from God's promise - "Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine" (verse 1 ).

     No matter what you are going through, "... I will be with you; ... they shall not overflow you, you shall not be bumed ... For I am the Lord your God ... " (verses 2 and 3).

     "Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing..." (verses 18 and 19) - God's promise.

     We pray God Almighty to add blessings to the singing, praying and to the reading and doing of His Holy Word through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen.
