Psalm 112:7 "They won't be afraid of bad news; their hearts are steady because they trust the Lord." We live in a fear-based world, a world where bad news travels at the speed of light and one in which good news doesn't seem to do the same. These are troubled times we are in. Times where we have a legitimate worry about the future of our world, of our nation, and even within our families. But as Christians, we have every reason to live courageously. After all, the ultimate battle has already been fought and it has already been won on that cross in Calvary. Perhaps you, like many other believers, have found your courage tested lately. If so, God wants you to know that He is not only near, He is here. He is your Protector and your Deliverer. Call upon Him in your hour of need, and be comforted. Whatever your individual challenge, whatever your trouble, God can handle it and He will.
