Encouragement During Uncertain Times
“There is an emotional satisfaction when I know there is a cross. There is a hill called Calvary. There is a suffering Savior. There is a relationship where He gives me comfort. God doesn’t conquer in spite the dark mysteries of evil—He conquers through it. He conquers through evil and pain and suffering and makes … Continue reading Encouragement During Uncertain Times
A Glimpse Into My Prison of Peace and Praise
Life is hard. Unfair. Discouraging. Uncertain. We all can agree and relate with these words I just listed. Recently, I have been thinking about anthems in general but also anthems in my own life.
