Balance Is the Factor

Our perennial fear of bad news is unfounded to the extent that we are grounded. Steadiness comes with balance.

It is an interweaving of trust in the mercy and grace of God with an ethic of obedience, generosity, peace, love, and justice played out in our choices.

The grace of God saves us. His Spirit empowers us.

Our choices determine our steady steps in Him

"He is not afraid of bad news;
his heart is firm, trusting in the LORD.
His heart is steady; he will not be afraid,
until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
He has distributed freely; he has given to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever;
his horn is exalted in honor."
(Psalm 112:7-9 ESV)
