The God You can Trust

It is during the hard seasons of life that one finds out what kind of a god one has.

I want to go on record as saying that the God of the Bible, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, is Faithful and True.  He is able to give comfort and peace in the midst of anguish.

And, despite what you think you know about Him, or what you may have been told about Him, or what they say about Him on television or social media, Jesus is God, and the Bible is God’s Word to man.

And it’s all True.

All those things written in the Bible about God and sung about in the great hymns of the faith:  His attributes.  His power.  His love.  The promises.  It’s all true.

Every bit of it.
