The Promise



Open Doors

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. Psalm 46: 1-3

The faithful of God
are not promised forever happiness,
that isnt the way life works.
Life happens, devastating in its brutal reality.

God did not promise
a trouble-free existence.
We endure loses we do not think we can bear,
but we do.

God does promise to be present with us.
God gives us backbone,
Christ gives us comfort,
The Holy Spirit gives us understanding.
