GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH

GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH, AN EVER-PRESENT
HELP IN TROUBLE.
( PSALM 46:1 *NIV )


Now we all have troubles in our life once in a while! When we
do we may always count on our Heavenly Father's help, no matter
what we may be facing. For God has promised: CALL ON ME IN
THE DAY OF TROUBLE; AND I WILL DELIVER YOU.
( PSALM 50:15 )

After all we may feel, HARD PRESSED ON EVERY SIDE, BUT
NOT CRUSHED; PERPLEXED, BUT NOT IN DESPAIR;
PERSECUTED, BUT NOT ABANDONED; STRUCK DOWN, BUT
NOT DESTROYED. ( 2 CORINTHIANS 4:8-9 ) because our
Heavenly Father is always with us.

For when we are weary, God has promised: I WILL REFRESH THE
WEARY AND SATISFY THE FAINT. ( JEREMIAH 31:25 ) After all,
HE GIVES STRENGTH TO THE WEARY AND INCREASES THE
POWER OF THE WEAK. ( ISAIAH 40:29 )

Further, even when we become brokenhearted He Ministers to us,
for it is written: HE HEALS THE BROKENHEARTED AND BINDS UP
THEIR WOUNDS. ( PSALM 147:3 )

So never let life's troubles get you down. Just
remember the words of our Savior Jesus Christ, for He said: "DO NOT
LET YOUR HEARTS BE TROUBLED. TRUST IN GOD; TRUST ALSO
IN ME." ( JOHN 14:1 )

FINALLY, BE STRONG IN THE LORD AND IN HIS MIGHTY
POWER. ( EPHESIANS 6:10 ) For God has said: "DO NOT FEAR,
FOR I AM WITH YOU; DO NOT BE DISMAYED, FOR I AM YOUR
GOD. ( ISAIAH 40:10 ) Amen!
