What's in a refuge ... salvation

God is our refuge. I never thought too hard about that until recently. Where do we go when the world has turned on us? We take refuge in the Lord.

Sometimes we feel bad for praying only when trials come our way. We should be praying daily, absolutely. But if God is our refuge, he is who we go to when we feel exiled in this life.

This refuge is a salvation. God offered salvation before Jesus. It wasn't the same kind of salvation, but it shows us God's unchanging character.

When all feels hopeless, seek refuge.
When everything begins to feel like abandon, seek refuge.
When you're lost in a forest of confusion, seek refuge.
When you see a world socially mimicking entropy, seek refuge!!

 ~~ Exerpts from Psalm 71 ~~
"you are my rock and my fortress"
"you have been my hope, O Sovereign Lord"
"you are my strong refuge"
