“There's no storm that Jah won't carry you through.
No bridge that Jah won't help you cross.
No battle that Jah won't help you win.
No heartache that Jah won't help you let go of.
He is SO much BIGGER than anything you will face today.
Leave everything in Jah's hand and embrace this day confidently
knowing that Jah will take care of you!”
Jah Be Praised in all Things........AMEN!
