The enemy keeps telling us that we don’t fit in anywhere, we aren’t good enough, there’s not a place for us, that we are failures & we’ve failed as parents. He is relentless as he tries to convince us that it’s too late & that God has forgotten us.

We are finding hope in these timeless, ageless truths:

“See, I am doing a new thing!Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” (Isaiah 43)

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Proverbs 3:5,6

“Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him.” 1 Corinthians 1

“He established a testimony… that the next generation might know… so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments.” Psalm 78

“…yet I will not forget you. Behold, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands.” Isaiah 49
