Rev. Stewart & Stewart family, I pray that God continues to strengthen you during this time. Please take comfort in 2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV) But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. Christ has POWER for you at this special season of life.
