Promises, Promises

Last night, many of us watched the second presidential debate of this election year.  Regardless of which side you may be leaning towards, watching these events and listening to these candidates stirs up a great deal of discouragement, anger, and worry.  One thing we can probably all agree on is that no matter who 'wins' this election....no one has really 'won' and the 
Picture
next four years are going to be challenging to say the least.

That's why it's important to remember where our hope really lies.  Jesus promised us that there would be trouble in this world; but He also promised us that in Him we would find peace.


In the world you will have trouble, but in me you will have peace.    ~ John 16:33

In the midst of trying to determine whose election promises we trust more, let's remember some of the promises of the all-powerful One who never changes, is always steadfast and true, and will never leave us.

Come to me all you who are weary and heavy burdened, and I will give you rest. 
                                                                                                                               
~Matthew 11:28


For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline. ~ 2 Timothy 1:7

I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.    ~Philippians 4:13

My God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus.
                                                                                                                          
~ Philippians 4:19

It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed. ~ Deuteronomy 31:8

If God is for us, who can be against us? ~ Romans 8:31


Choosing to trust in Him...
