Big Shoes to fill

"big shoes to fill?" Joshua 1:5 "as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you." After all those years, watching this 'Mighty Man of God' Moses...don't you think Joshua may have been a little nervous? Is victory assured?...not because Joshua is a great leader, but because God is a great God, He says... I will be with you. Joshua 3:17...and all Israel crossed over on dry ground, until all the people had crossed completely over the Jordan. How did it happen? What was the key to this amazing miracle? This miracle obviously connects with the miracle the nation knew some 40 years earlier: the passing through the Red Sea. God brought them out of Egypt’s bondage with a miracle, and He brought them in to the Promised Land with a miracle. To face such impossible challenges in our lives, we must look unto Jesus, our Joshua. He always leads us...'nuff said David? Even today? Even when it "looks like there's just no way? Even when you feel like you've got big shoes to fill?  "God knows...just call on Him, He'll be with you!"
