The world is a scary place. Many people live day-to-day in fear. Anxiety may originate from several different sources. Financial worries, job insecurity, rejection, marital problems, crime, illness, loneliness, loss of a loved one, often lead to discouragement and hopelessness. Just tuning in to the day's news is enough to drive anyone to despair. While we may face such dreadful experiences, our Creator does not want us to live this way. The pages of the Bible are rich in God's promises along with the faithful fulfillment of each one of those promises. Study His promises to Abraham and the Hebrew slaves in Egypt. Learn about the promises to the children of Israel He made through His prophets. God sent the promised Messiah through Jesus Christ to pay for the sins of all mankind. Throughout the New Testament, the promises of God were fulfilled and promises yet to come assured. God's faithfulness is confirmed as He delivers hope for the promises yet to come. Poems of Promise is a daily devotional based on God's Word. The messages from His Word are sure, positive promises for a troubled and weary world. Each day's devotion is intended to be a reprieve from the troubles of this world by focusing on hope through inspiration. Read a devotion each day knowing that God is above all things, that He only wants the best for you, and that He loves you very much. I pray that this devotional serves you well. The simplistic poetic form is designed to stimulate emotion, while offering a somewhat different and creative presentation from other devotionals. My sincere wish is that this book offers inspiration and peace of mind as you draw closer to our Lord and Savior.
