Pager-Turner

Remember when the Israelites were fearful to enter the Promised Land, “But the people there are powerful, and the cities are fortified and very large.”  AND, there are all kinds of ‘ites’ living there. (Numbers 13-14). Just keep turning the pages folks. Joshua chapter 2, (105 pages later) it turns out the people beyond them, on the other side,  were more fear-filled, “I (Rahab) know that the LORD has given this land to you and that a great fear of you has fallen on us, so that all who live in this country are melting in fear because of you.” (v9). They heard about the Israelites and their God. The Israelites do crossover and one of those very large cities, well, the walls just fell down! (Kinda). May we walk courageously against who and what fears us more.   Our life is like a book, just keep turning the pages, because God says, “I will be with you!”  Be a page-turner.
