Day 286 of the journey
A Refuge in Trouble
Today's stop rests on Nahum 1:7. It takes about a minute.
“The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him.”
Nahum 1:7
The reflection
Refuge is not the absence of trouble. It is somewhere to be while the trouble goes on.
One step forward
Take shelter today instead of bracing.
A short prayer
Lord, you said it and I want to believe it. Where I can't yet, hold me anyway. Let these words go with me into the rest of today. Amen.
