Put on the Helmet of Your Salvation

The wisdom of God equips and prepares you for God's purposes. It strengthens you in the certainty of your salvation so you can overcome confusion, falsehood, and uncertainty with the God-given confidence that comes through Christ alone.... There may be times when you're uncomfortable, in pain, and even sorrowful. But with the wisdom of God - which you gain by putting on the helmet of your salvation - you can overcome confusion. ~ David Jeremiah

Gospel of Peace

If you struggle with anxiety, life can seem like a battle. But God understands the extend of your worry. And because of the gospel of peace, the one thing you don't have to fear is losing His love. Even in the darkest nights of the soul, the God of all peace is with you and for you. ~ David Jeremiah
