"If Need Be, I'll Be" The truth that His light reveals, His grace removes, His goodness replaces, and His guidance renews and readies us. The message centers on the truth that God does not merely deliver His people from bondage; He brings them under His loving government so He can guide, refine, renew, and ready them for everyday mission.
