Refuge in times of trouble


Psalm 59:16 But I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
In the days of knights and kings, when there was a threat of trouble, the people would run to the castle, or fortress. They would be safe behind the walls. In the same way, whenever we have a threat of trouble in our lives, we should run to God who is our fortress. We are safe in His arms. Nothing can penetrate his love for us. That is why every morning, not just when we go to church, we need to sing of His strength, and of His love. They are both great. There is no one, or nothing stronger than our God. And there is no greater love than the love He has for us. He loves us so much that He sent His son, Jesus, to die and redeem our sins. So, every morning, while you are brushing your teeth, or making breakfast, sing to God. Thank him for His strength, and thank Him for His love. If you are going through something, run to Him, He will love you and protect you.
