But, living by trusting in\n   God's promises, Christians are often able to overcome the\n   problems and difficulties in ways those who reject God cannot.\n   We have the sure and certain hope of God's rich grace, that He\n   fulfills His promises even when all seems hopeless.\n\n        May our Lord grant us faith that we trust in Him always,\n   that we call upon Him in the day of trouble.
