From Luke 21:17-19:  “You will be hated by all because of my name.  But not a hair of your head will perish.  By your endurance you will gain your souls.”

Facing life’s trials

To whom shall we turn?

Walking every mile

Faith in God shall yearn

Fading sun grows dark

From whom comes next light?

Igniting faith’s spark

God’s mercy glows bright

Leading each nation

To whom shall we pray?

Lasting foundation

God’s faith never sways

Fleeing darkest flames

From whom comes safe place?

Living God takes aim

Faith’s grace-filled embrace

From Malachi 4:2-3:  “But for you who revere My name the sun of righteousness shall rise, with healing in its wings.  You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall.  And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, on the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts.”
