A friend shared with me this comforting thought, "in the original greek the word "never" is said five times" ....five times in a row...in the scriptures. Instead of "I will never leave you nor forsake you" Joshua 1:5
The original way God wrote it was...." I will never, never, never,never, never leave you nor forsake you", when translated they only used one "never". She heard this treasure from a lecture of Elizabeth Elliot, a wonderful respected missionary.
The same verse is used in Deu.31:8, "He will never leave you nor forsake you" and Hebrews 13:5 "Never will I leave you, never will I forsake you".
"I will never, never, never, never, never leave you nor forsake you"
What a comforting thought, Thank you Jesus!
