I have enjoyed reading some of the thoughts of Hildegard of Bingen lately. She lived in the 11th century and was a woman of very deep faith. Hildegard spoke from her own circumstances and was convinced of God's presence with us at all times. These words struck me today:
"Even in a world that's being shipwrecked, remain brave and strong."
Her words echo the words of Paul, when he wrote to the church in Rome to encourage them to hold onto the promises of God.
"Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God. He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever he promises." - Romans 4: 20-21May we remain brave and strong, as we hold onto the promises of Jesus.
Living in Grace
