If you ever need a respite from this world,
go to the root and ask,
“What does this world stand on?”

“A canopy of peace. You see, it’s not particularly stable. it’s a small house made of 3 walls, but all are welcome to sit and eat and sing in it. All are welcome, and this is what the world stands on.”
If we are able to recognize and thank God even in our times of pain, to call out to God when we need Him and sincerely express our gratitude when He saves us, to call out to Him when the rockets are up and rejoice and thank Him when they come down, then we will not be atheists in foxholes.
How do you thank someone who welcomes you without hesitation to a holy city so that you will know, without any doubt, that “God is in this place?”
