I said, “I am about to fall,” but, Lord, your love kept me safe.
He will not let you be defeated. He who guards you never sleeps.
I have done what you told me; I have not failed.
I said, “Don’t let them laugh at me or brag when I am defeated.”
But I had almost stopped believing; I had almost lost my faith
So don’t worry, because I am with you. Don’t be afraid, because I am your God. I will make you strong and will help you; I will support you with my right hand that saves you.
I have prayed that you will not lose your faith! Help your brothers be stronger when you come back to me.”
“This perfume was worth an entire year’s wages. Why wasn’t it sold and the money given to the poor?”
God’s power protects you through your faith until salvation is shown to you at the end of time.
He protects those who are loyal to him, but evil people will be silenced in darkness. Power is not the key to success.
