“Go to now, ye that say, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.” “Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth.” But, “the Lord, He it is that doth go before thee; He will be with thee, He will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed,” for “as thy days, so shall thy strength be.” He says to His own, “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,” “for I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.” “Surely He shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler. ... He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.” So “I will go in the strength of the Lord God: I will make mention of Thy righteousness, even of Thine only,” “redeeming the time, because the days are evil.”
The days lie out before me,
And I know not what they hold,
But I know Him who promised,
Never to forsake my soul.
