Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:
If you encounter an unpleasant surprise, stay calm and do what you can to get past it. You will have to dig deep to find the strength and resolve to deal with what seems like adding insult to injury, but you are well able to survive and even thrive. Keep your belief in Me to bring you through every circumstance, says the Lord.
Isaiah 40:28-31 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall grow wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Daniel 10:1-21
Daniel’s Vision of the Last Days
In the third year of Cyrus, king of the Persians, the word was uncovered to Daniel (of whom the name was called Belteshazzar) and the word is true. And great ability and understanding in the vision was given to him. In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks. I ate not of desirable bread, and meat and wine entered not into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself with oil, until three whole weeks were accomplished. On the twentieth fourth day of the first month, I was next to the great river — it is the Tigris. And I lifted my eyes and looked. And behold, a man, one being clothed with linen clothes, and His loin being girded in gold of Uphaz. And His body was as Tharsis stone, and His face as a sight of lightning, and His eyes as lamps of fire, and His arms and His legs as the sight of shining brass, and the sound of His words as a sound of a multitude. And only I Daniel saw the vision: and the men that were with me saw not the vision; but a great amazement fell upon them, and they fled in fear. So I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there was no strength left in me, and my glory was turned into corruption, and I held no strength. Yet I heard the voice of His words: and when I heard Him I was pricked in the heart, and I fell with my face to the earth. And, behold, a hand touched me, and it raised me on my knees and palms of my hands. And He said to me, O Daniel, man greatly beloved, understand the words which I speak to you, and stand upright: for I am now sent to you. And when He had spoken this word to me, I stood trembling. And He said to me, Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that you set your heart to understand, and to afflict yourself before the Lord your God, your words were heard, and I am come because of your words.
Michael
But the prince of the kingdom of the Persians withstood me twenty-one days: and behold, Michael, one of the princes, came to help me; and I left him there with the chief of the kingdom of the Persians: and I have come to inform you of all that shall befall your people in the last days: for the vision is yet for many days. And when he had spoken with me according to these words, I turned my face to the ground, and was pricked in the heart. And behold, as a likeness of a Son of man touched my lips, and I opened my mouth, and I spoke, and said to the One standing before me, O Lord, at the sight of You my bowels turned within me, and I had not strength. And how shall Your servant be able, O Lord, to speak with this my Lord? and as for me, from henceforth strength will not remain in me, and there is no breath left in me. And there touched me again as it were the appearance of a man, and He strengthened me, and said to me, Fear not, man greatly beloved: peace be to you, be manly and strong. And when He had spoken with me, I received strength, and said, Let my lord speak; Speak, my Lord! for Youstrengthened me. And He said, Do you know why I came to you? And now, I shall return to wage war with the ruler of the Persians. And I was going in, and the ruler of the Greeks came. But I will tell you that which is ordained in the Scripture of truth: and there is no one that holds with Me in these matters but Michael your prince.

2 Corinthians 1:20-22 “Whatever God has promised gets stamped with the Yes of Jesus. In Him, this is what we preach and pray, the great Amen, God’s Yes and our Yes together, gloriously evident. God affirms us, making us a sure thing in Christ, putting His Yes within us. By His Spirit He has stamped us with His eternal pledge—a sure beginning of what He is destined to complete.” Pam Jackson
