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. Selah Psalm 46:1-3
I AM your refuge and strength,
an ever-present Help in trouble. Therefore, you don't need to be afraid of
anything -- not even cataclysmic circumstances.
The media are increasingly
devoted to fear-inducing subject matter: terrorism, serial killers, environmental
catastrophes. If you focus on such dangers and forget that I am your Refuge in
all circumstances, you will become increasingly fearful. Every day I manifest
My grace in countless places and situations, but the media take no notice. I
shower not only blessings but also outright miracles on your planet.
As you grow closer to Me, I open
your eyes to see more and more of My Presence all around you. Things that most
people hardly notice, like shifting shades of sunlight, fill you with
heart-bursting joy. You have eyes that see and ears that hear, so proclaim My
abiding Presence in the world.
Blessed are the people who know the festal shout, who
walk, O Lord, in the light of your face,
Psalm 89:15
