You are my hiding place
You always fill my heart with songs of deliverance
Whenever I am afraid
I will trust in you
Let the weak say I am strong in the strength of the Lord
There have been many times in my life where I sought the refuge of my Lord. Time and time again He let me find security in His loving arms.
There are times in all of our lives when we think we just can't take it anymore it happens to the best of us from the beginner Christian to the veteran Christian. The Psalm above is one of my favorites and I sing it as is written in yellow. It brings me comfort. I have been singing it a lot lately not so much for my hurt but for the hurt of others.
I want to tell those who are hurting and want to run away from all the evil, sadness and injustice in this world to run into the arms of God. He is your hiding place.
When you were a child and you were hurt you would tearfully run into the arms of an always welcoming parent and there was no better place to be. There was a tremendous sense of safety
cushioned in those arms. And as a child there was no greater feeling. You were protected. You were loved. You were received and not cast away.
God tells you today that His arms are there for you to seek shelter in, to hide from the things of this world that come to cause pain, to gain strength, to begin again , to find protection, love and reception.
He is your hiding place. He always fills your heart with songs of deliverance and whenever you are afraid you will trust in Him. Let the weak say "I am strong in the strength of the Lord"
