The name of the Lord is a strong and mighty tower where the righteous can run and be safe…but sometimes Life tries to shake that tower and we watch as brick after brick falls to the ground. Overcome with dread, you wonder how much longer this tower will stand.
Then the Wind stirs from within the walls and sends your face to the ground.
Suddenly, your voice isn’t tight with despair, and the tears streaming from your eyes aren’t heavy with sorrow, they are merely overflow from a well filled with joy.
And on your knees in humility, you can only look up to the sky in awe and cry “Yahweh! You are God! And though I’m not worth it, I am loved by you. And I will spend the rest of my days trying to return your love.”
Just for a moment, that tower stands tall and no amount of fear, doubt, or anger can pierce its walls.
∼Proverbs 18:10∼
Stand strong in the Lord. Run to Him and be safe.
God bless!
