| 0:00.0 | Hello, my name is Sochiel Dixon. |
| 0:08.2 | I'll be sharing a family memory in today's encouragement from our daily breath, God's comforting |
| 0:14.7 | commitment. Years ago, our family visited four corners, the only place in the United States where four states meet at one location. |
| 0:27.1 | My husband stood in the section marked Arizona. Our oldest son, AJ, hopped into Utah. Our youngest son, Xavier, held my hand as we stepped into Colorado. |
| 0:40.3 | When I scooted into New Mexico, Xavier said, Mom, I can't believe you left me in Colorado. |
| 0:48.3 | We were together and apart as our laughter was heard in four different states. |
| 1:02.2 | Now that our grown sons have left home, I have a deeper appreciation of God's promise to be near all his people wherever they go. After Moses died, God called Joshua into leadership and guaranteed |
| 1:10.3 | his presence as he expanded the Israelites |
| 1:13.3 | territory. In Joshua chapter one, God said, as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will |
| 1:21.9 | never leave you nor forsake you. Knowing that Joshua would struggle with doubt and fear as a new leader of his people, |

| 1:55.1 | his most comforting commitment assures us that he's always present. |
| 2:06.9 | Today's scripture reading is Joshua 1, verse 1 to 9. |
| 2:14.0 | After the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, |
| 2:21.1 | the Lord said to Joshua, son of none, Moses his aid, Moses, my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people get ready to cross |
| 2:30.7 | the Jordan River into the land I'm about to give them to the Israelites. |
| 2:36.2 | I will give you every place where you set your foot as I promise Moses. Your territory will |
| 2:43.3 | extend from the desert to Lebanon and from the Great River, the Euphrates, all the Hittite country |
| 2:50.4 | to the Mediterranean Sea in the West. |
| 2:53.6 | No one will be able to stand against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will never leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and courageous because you will lead these people to inherit the land I swore |
