Benediction
As you go, refuse the fear that comes from needing every mystery explained.
Stay faithful to what God has made clear.
When pride rises, when kingdoms shake, when the world feels strange, keep your eyes on the God who reigns.
And remember: no beast, no ruler, no kingdom gets the final word.
Our God is victorious. His Kingdom will endure.
So go in peace, and stay faithful to today.
