Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that
exalted itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every
thought to the obedience of Christ. — 2 Corinthians 10:5
Jesus is an ever-present Help in trouble. No matter what may
happen, Jesus is sufficient to provide whatever you need. Instead of imagining
how you may respond to terrible things that could happen, draw your mind back
to the present and take refuge in His Presence.
Bring into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ.
God is like a mother hen, eager to cover you with His
protective wings. As you snuggle under His wings, you will not only find
refuge; you will also discover a growing ability to trust Him. It is in closeness to God that you realize
how trustworthy He is.
Jesus is both your Rock and your Redeemer. Though
impregnable in His vast strength, He became a vulnerable Man so He could redeem
you from your sins. The more you take refuge in Him, the more aware you become
of His overcoming, overflowing Love. In Him you are utterly safe, for He is
your Rock of everlasting Love.
May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in
your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
—Psalm 19:14
