Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me! For my soul trusts in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will take my refuge, until these calamities have passed by. Psalm 55:1 (NKJV)
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1
On the many occasions that I have desperately sought the comfort and shelter of God’s presence, I have never been disappointed. His Word gives me hope and strength and peace. I am so thankful for this! The deep love that I have for my heavenly Father and for Jesus Christ, my Savior has made such a difference in how I handle difficult situations. The ability to go to Him in prayer and share my hurts and fears gives me the assurance that He is listening and that He answers according to His will for my life and for those around me.
If you feel the need to seek God’s shelter due to situations that are presently surrounding you, or if there are circumstances in your life that seem to be beyond your control, just remember that you have a Savior–Jesus Christ, who wants to bring you peace and hope. He will shelter you from any storm that you may face now or in the future because He specializes in calming the storms.
PRAYER: Father God, thank You for sheltering us from the storms of life. Through Jesus, we have the ability to rest safely in the Shepherd’s arms at all times. Help us to trust You always, knowing that You love us beyond comprehension. I pray this in Jesus name. Amen.
