Rain, Ruins, and Renewal

Joy and sorrow often dwell together, and gratitude is born in their meeting place. The people of God learn to sing even through tears, trusting that new life always grows from what has been broken.

This Thanksgiving, some of us celebrate in abundance; others carry grief. But as the ancient builders and the early settlers discovered, the caring heart of God is not lost in the noise. He is near—bringing renewal, purpose, and peace to all who look to him with thankful hearts.
