You’re hurting…

…in so many ways, for so many reasons.

Life seems like it’s shaking all around you. The earth beneath you quakes. And you’re grasping onto God’s person…

…for help.

…to keep from falling.

…to refrain from giving in.

I know you’re tired. You’re worn. I know it feels like things are never going to improve.

Some situations truly don’t have a good ending. But life does get better. Problems resolve. Seasons pass.

You will feel joyful again– and the present will be a faded memory.

You’ll learn from it, grow from it, be stronger because of it. And in time, you’ll value the moment– if only for who you became because of it.

Honestly, that’s not much comfort while you’re going through the trouble. That’s why we remind ourselves we aren’t standing on shifting sand; but, on a Word!

(Psalm 46:1,2) “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea….”

We have a refuge! God is our safe place to run. He’s a supernatural peace in the storms of life. He’s the One who helps us know what we should do in the stress of the trials.

No matter how frightening it is to feel the earth shake & uncertainty fill our days, we have a place of rest, security & peace in our God of refuge!
