"Trusting in Jesus"
Is to Live With Hope

Who is Jesus?

The Bible tells us that Jesus is the Son of God, yet fully God, that He was with God from the beginning and is the Eternal and Infinite Maker and Lord of all that exists, (Jn 1:1-2)... more

God is in Control

Regardless of the many personal problems, political nonsense, and  wars, God is still in control.

This world is filled with troubles, hardship, and pain that sometimes seem to be without solution. However, with Jesus as our Anchor, we have every reason to hope and believe for things in life to get better.

In times of unimaginable hardship and pain, even when you can't sense His presence, God is there. 

So keep on praying and believing, and one day, your burdens will lift, and it will be as a beautiful spring day; with the sun shining, the flowers blooming, and the birds singing.  

Perhaps, you will say, "Thank you, Father, it's a pretty good world after all."

"New Beginnings"

Our God is the God of new beginnings, with Him, nothing is impossible. The path of His choosing is the only one that leads to true happiness. Trusting Him through uncharted waters takes faith and courage, but is worth every effort.

"Safety in the Presence of God"

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
My God, in whom I trust!”
For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper
And from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with His pinions,
And under His wings you may seek refuge;
His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.

You will not be afraid of the terror by night,
Or of the arrow that flies by day;
Of the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
Or of the destruction that lays waste at noon.
A thousand may fall at your side
And ten thousand at your right hand,
But it shall not approach you.
You will only look on with your eyes
And see the recompense of the wicked.
For you have made the Lord, my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place.
No evil will befall you,
Nor will any plague come near your tent.

For He will give His angels charge concerning you,
To guard you in all your ways.
They will bear you up in their hands,
That you do not strike your foot against a stone.
You will tread upon the lion and cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you will trample down.

“Because he has loved Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him securely on high, because he has known My name.
“He will call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
“With a long life I will satisfy him
And let him see My salvation.”

(Psalm 91: NASB 95)

Loyalty and Faithfulness

True loyalty springs from the heart and is wrapped in love. It is often in our most private moments that true loyalty, or the lack of it, is made known.
