Psalms 46:1 – August 30, 2018

God is our refuge and our strength, an ever-present help in distress. Psalm 46:1 NABRE     

Psalm 46 opens with God as our place to go when we have trouble. God is refuge, basically a place of trust and God is strength, others places call God rock, foundation, solidly there for us. God is present to help in distress, any kind of trouble. God doesn’t judge if we call on Him when things have us down, he is ever ready to support us. We have nothing to fear, we can make our home in God and where God is there is our home, we are welcome. God is always with us. God defends us and keeps us safe. In the stillness we can know God. God is the creator of the universe, greater than all and a place for us to go when frightened. God offers all for us, wanting us to have everything, always. There is no one like God. If we put all our trust in God, making the beginning of our day a time with God, doing all we can to reveal God to others, we will be surprised by the abundance God will provide in our lives. Sometimes we don’t believe this, we think we are in control and provide for our own security and safety. God allows for us to work towards our own success, but it is a struggle. Let God take you where you are at your best and you will have an easier, better life.

Maybe there is a broken relationship in your life, or money trouble, or you can’t get healthy, perhaps someone you love is in trouble and you don’t know how to help. Turn it over to God. There is nothing God who is our trust and our rock cannot withstand. God never leaves us alone or helpless.

It is said often, with God nothing is impossible, how can you come to truly depend on God? What is the first step?

God allows for us to work towards our own success, but it is a struggle. Let God take you where you are at your best and you will have an easier, better life. Click To Tweet
