Whether you’re called to be a firefighter or a teacher or a stay-at-home mom, you are important. Your life means something. God called you to fulfill that special role. . .
Through any trial or pain, the Lord sees all, and He loves his people in a deep, unfailing way. Although a thousand may fall, our fate and lives rest in Him and Him alone. . .
