I will fear no evil for You are with me. Psalm 23:4

It can be safely said that we have more courage when we are around our friends. With them, we might even do amazing or seemingly impossible deeds. Who is a better friend to us than the Lord? Who is stronger, wiser, or more powerful?

The critical question is, “Do you believe that the Lord is with us?” The Lord is always willing to help us with our unbelief because we are weak and frail creatures beset by our circumstances. He is ever ready to extend His mighty hand to save and deliver us. How sweet our lives would be if we could consistently believe that the Lord was walking with us every day. We do this by daily exercising our belief despite our fears. Exercise helps to make our faith muscle grow stronger. Who among us does not want to be in the constant company of our best friend?
