God alone strengthens us to be sustained by his love, so that we can endure exile.

Do we trust that Jesus can actually give us life?

We are greatly loved by God, and this is why we can confess with humble boldness.

God shows us that suffering will end, so we can endure through suffering until the end.

The Thingness Of A Thing by St. Peter's Fireside

Whether the lions go hungry or fed, God saves his faithful people.

The writing on the wall points us to our need for mercy and grace, and God delights in lavishing mercy and grace upon us.

God gives us his kingdom through a great descent

God gives us a faith that can endure, and even flourish, in fiery trials.

God has given us the promise of his kingdom, so we can become a peaceful presence in exile.
