God is a safe place to hide,
Psalm 46 v 1-3 The Message Bible
ready to help when we need him.
We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom,
courageous in sea storm and earthquake,
Before the rush and roar of oceans,
the tremors that shift mountains.
Jacob-wrestling God fights for us,
God-of-Angel-Armies protects us.
The best things always come in three!
And today we continue to learn to trust God. Today God declares I am a safe place to hide. He is ready to help when we need him. God is timeless, he invented the concept of time and so when we need him he already knows. He already has plans in place to help us. We stand fearless at the cliff-edge of doom.
Years ago I struggled with loneliness. It was horrible and could shatter me in an instance. So God stepped in and saved me and it was amazing. I share my story so you will call upon God and know his healing.
On Sunday night after being away with 50 young people I returned home to an empty house. I had a bath and got into bed early ready to fall asleep after the tiring weekend. As I lay there, I suddenly felt alone and afraid. This escalated quickly when I felt a horrible presence and I very quickly screamed God. I only needed one word in my prayer and I was saved. The pillow I was sleeping on melted away and I lay on legs. My hair was being brushed by a hand and I heard Jesus say I am always here with you.
The result, I am no longer alone and no longer scared. Well, I am still scared of some things, but I will trust God.
