The Journey Home
Since that moment in the hospital where my faith began to flicker and grow, I've learned to trust. I journeyed home--and one day, I'll be in my heavenly home. As each day passes, it is getting closer.

Are we afraid? Are we asking God to defend? I'm discouraged with the fear that seems to permeate our Christian culture, too

Gems to Ponder
We can take courage from these verses--those gems from the past.
A Promise
Will life return to normal? I can't answer those doubts and nagging questions, but I can point you to One who knows about our situation. Remember the promise mentioned above. He promises to strengthen and help. He reminds us not to fear.

We Wait
We wait for the time when we can move about freely. Get closer to our families and not feel the heaviness of this loss. When we can return to our jobs, and churches, and friends. Until then, we wait. Together.
