The Lord is good, and His mercy endures forever. He is my rock, fortress, deliverer, strength, shield, salvation, and high tower. Through Christ I receive strength to remain faithful in abundance and in need. I rejoice, continue in prayer, and give thanks in every circumstance. God’s purposes are peaceful, redemptive, and full of hope. I will praise Him before, during, and after the answer.
