"Thus far has the Lord helped us." I Samuel 7:12
When I think about the goodness of God over the years, I am mindful through poverty, through wealth, through sickness, through health, at home, abroad, on the land, on the sea, in honor, in dishonor, in perplexity, in joy, in trial, in triumph, in prayer, in temptation, "thus far has the Lord helped me."
In examining the past, I can say, "thus far." Furthermore, as I look to the future, I'm not trapped by a past tense God. He is the God, who operates in the future in a "thus far" manner.
Therefore, if I have more trials, more joys, more temptations, more triumphs, more prayers, more answers, more toils, more strength, more fights, more victories, more sickness and more love. I can rest assured that the God of yesterday and today is the God of tomorrow. And He will be available to you and to me, 'thus far."
