In these unprecedented times, many of us are concerned and anxious as a result of the coronavirus pandemic but we are not without a refuge and hope.Psalm 46:1 says  “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”

Let us Commit to Connect with God through repentance and faith, may we experience God’s faithfulness and His Holy Spirit helping us in these days.
