“For I feared his indignation and anger, wherewith being moved against you, he would have destroyed you. And the Lord heard me this time also.”
Reflection for Today
Today's Catholic verse of the day is Deuteronomy 9:19: “For I feared his indignation and anger, wherewith being moved against you, he would have destroyed you. And the Lord heard me this time also.”
Peace is one of the first things anxiety steals. Christ does not deny our storms; He offers a peace that can remain even while the waves are still high. Deuteronomy is part of the long story of salvation. Catholics receive it as inspired Scripture, a word that prepares the heart for Christ and still nourishes the Church.
If nothing else remains from this page, let one phrase of Deuteronomy 9:19 remain. If the verse consoles you, do not rush past the comfort. Gratitude is also a form of obedience.
Prayer
Lord God, thank You for speaking through Deuteronomy 9:19. You said, “For I feared his indignation and anger, wherewith being moved against you, he would…” I do not want to rush past these words. Quiet my mind, warm my heart, and help me live what I have heard with faith, hope, and charity. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
