Strength and Shelter

Scripture

Psalms 46:1-3

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.

Observation

A true friend encourages us, comforts us, supports us like a big easy chair, offering us a safe refuge from the world. ~H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Application

We face trials every single day of our lives. Unlike unbelievers, we never face them alone. We have supernatural strength to see us through. God gives a place to take a moment to breath, when things get overwhelming. The fight is always hard, but we don’t have to fear it. Our God is bigger than any trial or fight that comes our way. You will never see a caterpilar afraid of the fight. God has sheltered it in a cocoon and given it the strength to break through and fly high as a butterfly.
