God is faithful. He'll fulfill every promise he's made. There's no disease God cannot heal, no heart he cannot mend, no bondage he cannot break, no enemy he cannot defeat, no mountain he cannot move, and no need he cannot meet.

Focus on our unshakeable God instead of the chaos around you and he will carry you through the challenges and on to victory.
