I used to wonder....But Now I Know. Now I know just how those Israelites felt on the day they took those tentative first steps out of the Land of Egypt....Just the sheer excitement and anticipation of liberation , the long awaited return to the promised land must have kept them awake through that night.
This is the Day the Lord has made...a day that reaffirms the age long truth that no-one holds the stage forever. I thank the Almighty for keeping us all alive to witness this day.
