“God is our refuge and strength,
    an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
    and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
    and the mountains quake with their surging.”
Psalm 46:1-3

We live in a broken world. Every headline we see is the latest tragedy. Through it all, every personal heartache and global catastrophe, God is our refuge and strength. He is ever-present in every good time and bad. Our hearts and prayers go out to everyone affected by the disaster in Manchester, England. Though we may never understand, God’s purpose will always prevail.
