ANTICIPATION by HELEN STEINER RICE GOD GIVES US A POWER WE SELDOM EMPLOY, FOR WERE SO UNAWARE IT IS FILLED WITH SUCH JOY. THE GIFT THAT GOD GIVES US IS ANTICIPATION, WHICH WE CAN FULFILL WITH SINCERE EXPECTATION. FOR THERES POWER IN BELIEF WHEN WE THINK WE WILL FIND JOY FOR THE HEART AND PEACE FOR THE MIND. AND BELIEVING THE DAY WILL BRING A SURPRISE IS NOT ONLY PLEASANT BUT SURPRISINGLY WISE. FOR WE OPEN THE DOOR TO LET JOY WALK THROUGH WHEN WE LEARN TO EXPECT THE BEST AND MOST TOO, AND BELIEVING WELL FIND A HAPPY SURPRISE MAKES REALITY OUT OF A FANCIED SURMISE. BUT FOR YOU WHO FEAR MY NAME THE SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL RISE, WITH HEALING IN ITS WINGS. YOU SHALL GO FORTH LEAPING LIKE CALVES FROM THE STALL. MALACHI 4:2 O LORD OF HOSTS, HOW BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO TRUSTS IN THEE! PSALM 84:12 NAS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE ARE THE FOUNDATIONS OF YOUR THRONE; LOVE AND FAITHFULNESS GO BEFORE YOU. BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE LEARNED TO ACCLAIM YOU, WHO WALK IN THE LIGHT OF YOUR PRESENCE, O LORD. THEY REJOICE IN YOUR NAME ALL DAY LONG; THEY EXULT IN YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS. PSALM 89:14-16 NIV BUT I WILL NEVER STOP LOVING HIM, NOR LET MY PROMISE TO HIM FAIL. NO, I WILL NOT BREAK MY COVENANT; I WILL NOT TAKE BACK A SINGLE WORD I SAID. PSALM 89:33-34 NLT FAITHFULNESS WILL SPRING UP FROM THE GROUND, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS WILL LOOK DOWN FROM THE SKY. PSALM 85:11 NRSV HE RAINED DOWN ON THEM MANNA TO EAT, AND GAVE THEM THE GRAIN OF HEAVEN. PSALM 78:24 NRSV WHEN THEY REACH DRY VALLEY, SPRINGS START FLOWING, AND THE AUTUMN RAIN FILLS IT WITH POOLS OF WATER. YOUR PEOPLE GROW STRONGER, AND YOU, THE GOD OF gODS, WILL BE SEEN IN ZION. PSALM 84:6-7 CEV FOR THOU ART THE GLORY OF THEIR STRENGTH: AND IN THY FAVOR OUR HORN SHALL BE EXALTED. FOR THE LORD IS OUR DEFENSE; AND THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL IS OUR KING. PSALM 89:17-18 KJV THE LORD HIMSELF WATCHES OVER YOU! THE LORD STANDS BESIDE YOU AS YOUR PROTECTIVE SHADE. THE SUN WILL NOT HURT YOU BY DAY, NOR THE MOON AT NIGHT. THE LORD KEEPS YOU FROM ALL EVIL AND PRESERVES YOUR LIFE. PSALM 121;5-7 NLT
