Lent Devotion | Day 7
In a world full of uncertainty and danger, where evil lurks and disease threatens and death holds overwhelming power, someone wrote Psalm 91. It is a bold proclamation of trust-confidence placed squarely on the Almighty God. This may be a season where such faith is difficult for you.
News headlines and events happening close to home or even in your own life tell a troubling story. But the faithful down through history know what it's like to go through storms. More than that, they know the God who has always been faithful and has time and time again proven himself to be a refuge, a strong fortress.
These words are not cheap. But they are real. Wrought out of anxiety, faith emerges because our God is stronger than the chaos we face.
May the testimony of Psalm 91 give you courage today. May you be emboldened to walk forward confidently, not because today is guaranteed to be pleasant, but because God is powerfully WITH us.
Even if you don't see your shadow today, we can never escape the shadow of the Almighty.
