Dear Friends,
In scary and uncertain times, we can find our hope and strength in God. Faith is always what has got me through my darkest days. I know that tensions are high with how agonizingly slow this storm is moving over us. I encourage you to take a moment to just be still in the midst of the chaos, take a deep breath while waiting and dealing with cabin fever, and remember that God is with us always. Just take a moment to be still and breathe and find His peace. We are praying for prayers of protection and peace for all of those impacted by Hurricane Florence.
Until next we meet,
Pastor Jessi
God is Our Fortress
1God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,
though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble at its swelling. Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy habitation of the Most High.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved;
God will help her when morning dawns.
6 The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress. Selah
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,
how he has brought desolations on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
he burns the chariots with fire.
10 “Be still, and know that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!”
11 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
~Psalm 46 ESV
