Below our deepest hurt and darkest shame, there is the grace of God—forgiving us, rebuilding us, repairing all that’s broken.
Above our highest joy and most euphoric moments, there is the sheer delight of God—applauding us, encouraging, enlarging celebration.
Through every stage of every journey—in trust, in fear; in faith, in doubt; in youth, in gray maturity—we’re never left alone or told to make it on our own. Despite appearances, the road is never empty.
Around us each are Jesus’ everlasting arms—sustaining us, protecting us, embracing us. His hands are ever on us.
“For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things” (Rom 11:36).
“Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will hardship, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? . . . No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Rom 8:39).
We are befriended by the One who rules all time and space.
Receive the gift. And stay in grace.
