"In the day of my trouble . . . . . . . . . . I will call upon thee (Ps. 86:7)."

Someday the last question will be asked. The last injustice and calamity will be inflicted upon humanity. The Lord, will have the last word--a word of authority, casting down dominions and powers and evils from the beginning of time, and for all eternity. This fallen world will be renewed--and HE shall reign forever and ever.

Until that day, we believe. We trust. We wait, knowing the ultimate answer is in His keeping. And all is well!

Prayer: "Lord, I am full to the brim with unanswerable questions, both for my world and for my life. There ARE no answers, only YOU. Help me to know that You are enough; where there has been unspeakable trials, there will be unspeakable grace. I trust You, and commit the unanswered questions of my life--and theirs--into Your safe keeping. In Jesus' Name, Amen."
