Living a life free from fear and anxiety is possible when we learn to trust God completely, giving our fears and worries to Him and expecting His peace to fill our hearts.

So, you know how we all have that one drawer or closet in our room that's just full of random stuff? It's like a black hole, right? You throw in all the things you don't know what to do with, and they just disappear. But the thing is, they don't really go away. They're still there, cluttering up ...read more

An apt overture to the crescendo of Praise with which the Psalter ends!
