War…Hurricanes…Family Issues…Elections…All of those things give me reason to pause, perhaps even to sigh. God however gives me reason to hope. He gives me strength to carry on, to live my faith, and to allow Him to do the best in each situation of life. Today we take a break from Romans to be reminded of where our ability to live faithfully comes from. Trust in the Lord, for HE is the Almighty and is very much upon His throne.
