b'When we are weak, He is strong.When we are afraid, He holds us.When we can\\u2019t walk, He will help us fly like eagles.When everything feels out of our control, we can know He holds the whole world.\\nNothing is impossible with God.Nothing is too big for Him to handle or too far out of His reach.\\nHe sees us.He sees any pain we are going through.He knows the number of our daysAnd how many hairs are on each of our heads.He knows what is going on, and He will not let us go. He loves us and will always keep His promises.He will provide for us.He will hold us.\\nThese are such beautiful promises\\u2014rooted in Jesus\\u2019 death and resurrection. I want to remember, in Christ, I am secure no matter what my circumstances are. I am secure because my faith is in His work (Romans 8:34-39). He died, taking my sins upon Himself and giving me His righteousness (2 Corinthians 5:17-21). Then, He rose again, giving me eternal life (John 11:25-26). Ultimately, He will work everything for His good kingdom purposes, and I can rest in His strength (Romans 8:28; 2 Corinthians 12:9). And, because of Him, I can fly like an eagle through it all. \\u2022 Bethany Acker\\n\\u2022 How can you keep the promises found in Jesus Christ\\u2014the crucified and risen Savior\\u2014in your mind? \\n\\u2022 How does relying on God help you in your day-to-day life? \\n\\u2022 To learn more about what it means to trust in Jesus, check out our \\u201cKnow Jesus\\u201d page.\\nBut those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.
