Good morning!
In moments of worry and doubt, we can choose to let God’s peace guard our hearts, trusting that He will calm our fears and guide us through. Even when we ask, “Where are You, God?” we can rest in the truth that He is always with us, holding us close. God’s peace doesn’t depend on our circumstances, but on His faithful presence in our lives, reminding us that we are never alone.

These scriptures reminded us to place our trust in God’s unwavering promises, live with eternal hope, and seek his peace through prayer, while also responding to his call to salvation with open hearts.
