God is our refuge
and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1
When life goes
sideways, who do you call upon for help? Maybe a friend, co-worker, family member,
or maybe a professional counselor. Any one of these might be a great resource for
help, but how quickly do they respond when help is needed? We all live busy
lives and the response time can be hours, day’s, maybe even weeks. Let me share
with you someone who is always available at a moment’s notice.
Psalm 46:1 clearly
states that God is our refuge and strength. Those two things are usually critical
in times of need. But the last part of this verse tells just how available God
is, “a very PRESENT help in trouble”. He’s always present, always available to give
you strength when you are weak, shelter in times of complete chaos, and
provides wisdom when your situation has more questions than answers. I can tell
you after 60 years of life He’s always been there to guide me through some of
life’s most difficult moments, and He can do the same for you when you seek Him
out in your time of need.
When trouble comes
your way, don’t delay your call upon the Lord to help you. His response is
immediate and always the right answer for your situation. Trust me (and trust
God), He will see you through every situation you when give Him the reigns. God
bless!
