God Is Still on the Throne

In a world filled with brokenness, pain, and moments of deep darkness, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. Our hearts grieve as we see the weight of evil and suffering around us, and sometimes we may wonder where God is in the midst of it all.

Psalm 46:1-2a

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear…


The good news of Scripture reminds us that God is never shaken. He is not confused, startled, or overwhelmed by the events of human history. From beginning to end, He is sovereign over all things. The Lord reigns on His throne, working all things together for the good of His people and for His own glory.

And yet, this same sovereign God is not distant or cold. He is a loving Heavenly Father who draws near to His children. Scripture reminds us: “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble” (Psalm 46:1). He promises that those who seek Him will find Him, and He invites us to bring every burden, every fear, and every sorrow to Him. “Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7).

Revelation 21:4

He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.


When life feels heavy, when grief presses in, and when the darkness seems stronger than the light, we can rest in the truth that the Lord is with us. He is powerful to save. He is faithful to carry us. He promises to one day wipe away every tear from our eyes, and on that day, death and sorrow will be no more (Revelation 21:4).

Until then, we walk by faith, not by sight, trusting the One who holds all things together. Our hearts cry, “Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:20).

At Hope Counseling, we hold fast to this truth: no matter what you are facing, you do not walk through it alone. God is present, strong, and loving, and He invites you to lean on Him in every season.
