Do not be grieved, for the joy of the Lord is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10

God, the many stages of life can bring many uncertainties. Through disappointment, grief, and need, you are a constant and affirming presence. Thank you for always being with us. Help us to remember that you are always there. In the holy name of Jesus. Amen.
