Some time in 2021, I sent a church member a Bible verse for encouragement during a particularly difficult chapter of life: “Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God who is our salvation” (Psalm 68:19, NASB). This verse has been resounding such that it has become the theme verse for me during this past year. Do you have burdens? No worries; the God who is our salvation bears them every day. Because of it, blessed be the Lord! Despite the challenges of life and the instabilities in this world, our Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). May you look forward to this new year, looking as children to our Heavenly Father, from whom every good gift and every perfect gift comes, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow (James 1:17). Despite ourselves, our Lord shows Himself faithful and true always! Thank you for your faithful prayers and support for us in the last year. Press on in your faithful service to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
