For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=Romans%2014%3A8&version=KJV

Morning, Aug 15 Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide. — Genesis 24:63 Very admirable was his occupation. If those who spend so many hours in idle company, light reading, and useless pastimes, could learn wisdom, they would find more profitable society and more interesting engagements in meditation than in the vanities which now have such charms for them. We should all know more, live nearer to God, and grow in grace, if we were more alone. Meditation chews the cud and extracts the real nutriment from the mental food gathered elsewhere. When Jesus is the theme, meditation is sweet indeed. Isaac found Rebecca while engaged in private musings; many others have found their best beloved there. Very admirable was the choice of place. In the field we have a study hung round with texts for thought. From the cedar to the hyssop, from the soaring eagle down to the chirping grasshopper, from the blue expanse of heaven to a drop of dew, all things are full of teaching, and when the eye is divinely opened, that teaching flashes upon the mind far more vividly than from written books. Our little rooms are neither so healthy, so suggestive, so agreeable, or so inspiring as the fields. Let us count nothing common or unclean, but feel that all created things point to their Maker, and the field will at once be hallowed. Very admirable was the season. The season of sunset as it draws a veil over the day, befits that repose of the soul when earthborn cares yield to the joys of heavenly communion. The glory of the setting sun excites our wonder, and the solemnity of approaching night awakens our awe. If the business of this day will permit it, it will be well, dear reader, if you can spare an hour to walk in the field at eventide, but if not, the Lord is in the town too, and will meet with thee in thy chamber or in the crowded street. Let thy heart go forth to meet him.

"They will fight you, but they will fail. For I am with you, and I will take care of you. I, the Lord, have spoken!" (NLT) -Jeremiah 1:19 If you put faith in God, you can live every day with peace and reassurance. Putting your faith in God means you believe He will work for your good. If things don't turn out as expected, He will catch you and provide for you. There is peace knowing your Heavenly Father is looking out for you. If you see a tough day ahead of you tomorrow, just lean on God and shift your worries to Him and your day will be very different. Download this app to get your daily devotions: http://bit.ly/16uZrQ5
