God’s presence remains with us in every trial; we are never alone, for He walks with us through every fire, bringing comfort and courage.

Some of us walked in today with smiles that mask a thousand aches. Bills stack higher than courage. Reports from doctors bruise the heart. The road feels rough, the night long, the fire fierce.
