God will Hold You in His Hands

"You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in his distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat. For the breath of the ruthless is like a storm driving against a wall and like the heat of the desert...Isaiah 25:4-5"


One summer heavy downpours flooded a large area near my childhood home.  The stroms were followed by blazing heat, making cleanup miserable .  Tears fill my eyes as I saw pictures and read news stories that described the devastation.  Then I read that area churches- and some from far away had provided temporary shelters and food for those whose homes were ruined.  What blessed relief it was for these hurting people to have some respite from the forces of nature beyond their control.  

God is such a shelter.  Like a welcome shade in the summer heat or a strong wall of protection agaist storms, He is there for us when  life is overwhelming. Whether our distress comes from physical troubles,  inner conflicts, or difficult with other people, we can rest in God's strength.  He will see us through.

God is stronger than the fiecest storm and greater than any enemy you face.
