HIDE
Today's reading: Psalm 26-30

"The one thing I ask of the Lord--the one thing I seek most--is to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, delighting in the Lord's perfections and meditating in his Temple. For he will conceal me there when troubles come; he will hide me in his sanctuary. He will place me out of reach on a high rock. Then I will hold my head high, above my enemies who surround me..." Psalm 27:4-6 NLT

Hide-to conceal for shelter or protection.

Maybe the heartaches seem heavy...

Maybe the storm rages...

Maybe the dark days grow longer and darker...

Maybe the attacks come more frequently and more intensely...

Maybe your strength is waning...

Maybe your faith is beginning to waver...

And you read that He hides you? That He sets you in a place of protection? That He is keeping you out of reach of the enemy?

Yes, He does!

Hold your head up high, dear friend, for we have no clue what He is keeping us from. What horrors He has withheld from our lives. What depths of hurt He is keeping us from. What battles He is rescuing us from having to fight. What protection He is providing. What safety He offers close to Him.

As tough as it is, think how much worse it would be without Him!
