The sun shone brilliantly on...

The sun shone brilliantly on the dazzling snow of one of the highest mountains in the Alps, as a traveler followed his guide along the narrow path. He had confidence in his guide, and followed fearlessly in his footsteps, though the track was entirely new to him. Suddenly he hesitated; for the bold mountaineer stepped across a narrow but very deep chasm, and then, holding out his hand asked the traveler to take it, and step across. He hesitated, but the guide encouraged him to obey, saying reassuringly, "Take my hand; that hand never lets go." We are to live only one day at a time. We do not have to do the work of a lifetime in a few hours. We need not look into the future with anxiety; for God has made it possible for us to be overcomers everyday.
