For those interested: Scripture Through the Her2 Fight

[Paula O]

Deuteronomy 31:8 in 3 different Bible versions--

The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you or forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged (NIV)

God is striding ahead of you. He's right there with you. He won't let you down: He won't leave you. Don't be intimitated. Don't worry. (The Message)

Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; He will neither fail you or abandon you. (NLT)

"God never sends you into a situation alone. He always goes before His children, as He did with the children of Isreal when He led them with a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night...He always precedes you in any situation or encounter. God is never caught by surprise by your experience; He has already been there. He is prepared to meet every need because he has gone before you and knows exactly what you will need for your pilgrimage...If you are going through a difficult or confusing time, know that your Lord has gone before you and He is present with you. He is fully aware of what you are facing, and He is actively responding to your need."
