Let Israel say:
“His love endures forever.”
Let the house of Aaron say:
“His love endures forever.”
Let those who fear the Lord say:
“His love endures forever.”
When hard pressed, I cried to the Lord;
he brought me into a spacious place.
The Lord is with me; I will not be afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?
The Lord is with me; he is my helper.
I look in triumph on my enemies.
It is better to take refuge in the Lord
than to trust in humans. (Ps. 118:2–8)
This is my favorite verse because it is comforting to know that when I am going through difficult times, God is carrying me in his arms. During pleasant times, I am always happy, but in times of trouble, it is reassuring that God is with me and that although I cannot see him, he is helping me. God loves me always and his love endures “forever.”
Whenever I have asked Christians to pray for me, their prayers have always worked. I have felt peace every time, a kind of peace that I never experienced before.

Important Note from CT’s President and CEO
Dear CT Reader,
When the brokenness of our world seems endless, more than ever, people need to see the kingdom come.
Christianity Today exists to tell the stories and ideas of the kingdom of God. To make visible the good news that Jesus is still at work today transforming lives and bringing glory to himself.
But we can’t do this without you. Will you give a year-end gift to ensure the stories and ideas of the kingdom of God are made known in a world that is desperate for the hope we have in Christ? Now through December 31, your gift will be doubled, thanks to generous ministry partners.
You can help make the kingdom visible. Give your tax-deductible gift by December 31.
While we pray for peace, we need moral clarity about this war.
Christians have every reason to reduce light pollution.
