News of the senseless shootings of eight students and two teachers in a
Texas school on Friday pierced our hearts. Then, less than a day later, the
gaze of the world turned to a chapel in England for a fairytale wedding as
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wed.
Heartbreak.
The extremities in this life have the potential to give us whiplash. Charles
Dickens was a literary great, but I’m thankful that we have more than a commentary in man’s words. When the springs of hope
and winters of despair collide―we
have a God who does not change. “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today
and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). I am grateful in these tumultuous times for the
constancy of One who brings light in the midst of darkness and hope in the center
of despair.
Our hearts ache for those families in Texas who have lost beloved ones
and our prayers go up for healing for those touched by this tragedy. We also
pray for a new royal couple that as they spoke their vows before God, they
would trust Him to help them fulfill the
bright hopes they have to affect change in the world . . . in the “best of
times” and in the “worst of times.”

“As a Ford model during the 1980’s, the New York fashion world was my world. Beverly’s encouraging stories of how God moved in that sphere help us realize that no matter where we are— even on Seventh Avenue—God wants to use us for His glory.”
