I've believed in the promises of the Bible for a long time. Through the hard times. Through the good times. Through pain. Through lack of pain.
But ultimately we will find...the Lord Himself waiting to bestow a double blessing on us for our time of testing.
Even if you didn't attend Sunday School as a child, I'll bet you know this song.
Just a reminder my book launch for my newest book--A Trustworthy Anchor: God's Hope & Encouragement in the Storms of Life--a forty-day devotional is one week from today!

Do we need comfort when we are lighthearted and all is well? No. Comfort--one of God's greatest gifts--comes during the depths of sorrow and loss.
