His Strength That Carries You Through
Strength looks different as we age. On one of my prayer walks, I paused at a doorway and saw something I have not forgotten — a man quietly caring for his beloved wife, day after day, with grace. That is God’s strength made visible. And it is available to you too.

Today, let hope rise gently in your heart. Let it breathe life into your thoughts and peace into your spirit, filling you with joy as you trust in the God of all hope.
His Faithfulness Has Not Changed
