    Psalm 11 reminds us that even though the situation around us seems to be out of control, chaotic, very dangerous, and scary, God, whose throne is in heaven, sees everyone and everything, is still in control. Therefore, we can trust in Him and make Him our security and our refuge.

    With so much upheaval in the country (and world) there is a tendency for believers to be shaken in their faith. I want to boldly declare the Word of the Lord, and encourage the Church to hold to what we know is TRUE!
