........I have been reading through the gospel of Matthew and this morning a few verses really encouraged me and gave some interesting insights.
........The story of the centurion and his sick servant in chapter 8 was one of those. The faith of the centurion was greater than any Jesus had seen in Israel. And then after that to hear Jesus say, "Go your way; and as you have believed so let it be done for you" must have made him so glad!
........In chapter 10 verse 23, Jesus tells his disciples, "...for truly I say to you, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel until the Son of Man comes." I found that very interesting that even when Jesus returns there will be cities in Israel that have not heard about Jesus, or at least have not received the message from Christians.
.......And the verse I found the most encouraging is chapter 10 verse 22. There Jesus gives this special promise, "And you will be hated by all for My name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved."

I should read though the book of Matthew. . .
A bible verse that has been an encouragement to me alot is Isaiah 58:11:
The Lord will guide you always, He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden like a spring, whose waters never fail.
Have a great day in Jesus Anna!

That verse from Isaiah is a beautiful promise! Thank you, Hannah, may you have a blessed day from the Lord as well.
