The motto of war is: "Let the strong survive; let the weak die." The motto of peace is: "Let the strong help the weak to survive."

We are Marshalls. And we are not alone.' 'When all else is done, God is enough, everything and always.

Yep. Be. Believe. Hold on. Stand. Our best hope in the middle of confusion and chaos is not to try and solve our problems ourselves but to simply remember whose we are and who we hope in. You stay rooted in the middle of a storm—darkness, confusion, chaos—by putting your focus on the One who is stronger than the storm.

And I can also believe that God hasn't abandoned me just because my life blew up. Feelings aren't facts. The truth is that God loves me. And is up to something good in my life. Something you pointed out to me just a few weeks ago, bro.

You have to believe that no matter what happens, you're going to be okay. That God's grace is enough.

The Lord of my life, who calls me to be brave and walk into the unknown, amazing future. I am always awed by the wonder of you.
