James 1:27 says, “Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.”
It’s a powerful thought to recognize that the Bible clearly states what pure religion is in the sight of God. For over four hundred years, our country has tried to fix this problem in the halls of government and in past elections; yet from the beginning, God created a gap in culture that only the Bride of Christ was meant to fill. Out of everything for which the church should be known, these two are at the top of the list.
It’s a powerful truth that God cares about those that feel forgotten. Knowing that He sees us and is present in our pain and journey is something my family has held onto throughout the hard seasons of life. My prayer for this site is that you would know that He cares, He is present, and that He is awakening hearts to minister to you in this season. Always remember that there is a remnant of Christ’s Bride that is not only praying for you, but also looking to help as you journey through the days ahead.
There is hope; because in Jesus, the best is always yet to come.
