BEDROCK Devotional: Day 40

²⁰ And Samuel said to the people, “Do not be afraid; you have done all this evil, yet do not turn aside from following the Lord, but serve the Lord with all your heart; ²¹ and do not turn aside after useless things that cannot profit or save, for they are useless. ²² For the Lord will not cast away his people, for his great name’s sake, because it has pleased the Lord to make you a people for himself.
