About the refuge of God…

Psalm 73:28 But as for me, it is good to be near God. I have made the Sovereign Lord my refuge; I will tell of all your deeds. (NIV)

The goodness of God is a refuge for us and His refuge is available to us if we remain close to Him. Very often, God is our only refuge in a world of trouble and woe. He is often our only hiding place from the cares and worries that most surely eat away at our life. We can receive God’s protection in the storms of life if we come close to Him by abandoning all we are for Him. As sinners, we receive the protection or refuge of His glory and grace only when we truly worship Him without ever expecting anything back. God’s goodness and blessings are available to us 24/7 if we are near, not far from Him. When we adopt the mindset we are going to be His servant and seek His refuge no matter what happens to us, blessings pour out upon our life. We make the Lord our refuge as we seek to serve Him and love Him with all our heart and with all our might. As we come close to God, we feel His power and might around us. He does not make us hide in Him. He does not force us to serve Him. It is up to us, not up to Him about where we place our life, where we place our heart, and where we place our devotion. When the circumstances of our life are not good and we are assailed from every direction, we have a friend in Jesus. In His arms we have a refuge and a hiding place where He will soothe our hurt, heal our injury, and ease our pain.
