'An ever-present help in trouble'

God is our refuge and strength,
    an ever-present help in trouble.

Refuge. Strength. Help.

Trouble.

Who hasn't seen trouble? Some days, trouble seems to permeate a life, with struggles, setbacks and disappointment. Stroke survivors know too well how recovery can see progress one day, trouble the next.

But even in days of trouble,God is with us. Bring your needs for refuge and strength to God. You are never alone, never without help.

Will trouble magically vanish? Perhaps not. But with God's strength and help - and often, human help provided by God - you can find a refuge in your journey and strength to continue it.
