Isaiah 41:8-10
8 But thou, Israel, art my servant, Jacob whom I have chosen, the seed of Abraham my friend.
9 Thou whom I have taken from the ends of the earth, and called thee from the chief men thereof, and said unto thee, Thou art my servant; I have chosen thee, and not cast thee away.
10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Friday, March 6th, 2026. The Gift of Faith by Adele M. Gill, Maryland, USA. Read Isaiah 41, 8-10. Jesus said, I'm with you always to the very end of the age. One day when I was six years old, my mom said she had something to tell me. Ringing her hands, she said, Delcy, I want you to know that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit will always take care of you and our family, no matter what. As I listened, I didn't really know what she meant. Tears flowed down her pale cheeks and I wondered what was wrong. What was she trying to tell me? A few weeks later, my mom was admitted to a psychiatric hospital where she stayed for two years. As time dragged on, there wasn't a day that I didn't cry for her.
However, I also remembered what she had told me. Missing her made me physically ache, but her words continued to echo in my heart and mind. Somehow I knew I was not alone. The Faith-filled word she spoke to me before going to the hospital had been a lifelong gift to me. They have helped me to grow strong in my faith over time. When mom finally returned home, she had been through a lot, but we were jubilant to have her back with us. This childhood experience taught me to place my trust in hope in God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Try you in God. Thank you for the gift of faith and for all the blessings you have given us.
