Psalm Saturday


Time to join my friend Collette again over at Jesus Loves Mums for Psalm Saturday.
Join us this week as we share how something in the Psalms spoke to us.....

"God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear..." Psalm 46:1-2a, NLT


As I was reading in Psalms this week, I had to pause here. Even now as I type this post out, this brings even a different encouragement to me.

I found myself thinking of all the times I felt that life was out of control. The times I was without hope..alone. I remembered that even though in the moment I felt alone, God was there. My Refuge. My Strength.

This past Wednesday when my Dad had his heart surgery we almost lost him twice. God was there. My Refuge. My Strength.

Always ready to help in times of trouble. So we will not fear.....

Oh, to be able to put this to memory (which I have already) but to call on it in the midst of the storm!!!! To fully realize that there is no need to fear because He is my Strength, my Safe Place, my Father...
