MS flare-ups can come without warning, bringing new or worsening symptoms that disrupt daily life. These moments can shake your sense of security and make you feel vulnerable. But faith is not rooted in how steady life feels — it’s anchored in the unchanging character of God.
Scripture
"He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved." — Psalm 62:2 (KJV)
Devotional
When a flare-up hits, it’s easy to feel like the ground beneath you has shifted. Plans are disrupted, energy is drained, and uncertainty takes center stage. But the truth is, God has not moved. He is still your Rock.Standing firm in faith doesn’t mean ignoring the reality of the symptoms — it means acknowledging them while clinging to God’s promises. David wrote Psalm 62 during a time of great pressure and opposition, yet he declared that his soul found rest in God alone.In flare-ups, speak His Word over your situation. Remind yourself daily: this storm may be loud, but my God is louder. This pain may be real, but His presence is even more real.

Steadfast
Lyrics
(Verse 1)When the storm comes without warning, and the night feels far too longI will lift my eyes to heaven, You’re the anchor holding strongWhen the waves are all around me, and my heart begins to shakeI will stand upon the promise that Your hand will never break(Chorus)You are steadfast, unchangingIn the chaos, You remainYou are faithful, unfailingMy refuge in the rainThough the mountains may be falling, though the ground beneath me swaysYou are steadfast, You are faithful all my days(Verse 2)Every flare, every shadow, cannot pull me from Your handYou’re the God who holds tomorrow, You’re the rock on which I standWhen my body feels like failing, when my strength is wearing thinI will lean into Your mercy, and I’ll find my peace again(Bridge)You’re my fortress, You’re my shelter, You’re the calm within the fightYou’re the song that fills the darkness, You’re my everlasting light(Chorus)You are steadfast, unchangingIn the chaos, You remainYou are faithful, unfailingMy refuge in the rainThough the mountains may be falling, though the ground beneath me swaysYou are steadfast, You are faithful all my days
Prayer
Lord, when flare-ups shake my body and my plans, let my faith remain rooted in You. Remind me that You are my rock and my salvation. Keep me steadfast in hope, no matter the storm. Amen.
