DEAR GOD: You are My Get Away~

 

 

 

 

 

Deuteronomy 31:6-8  (NKJV) 

Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.”

 

 

Gloom and doom on the Television?

Wear a mask, don’t wear a mask?  Social distance.  Stay away.  Stay home.  No hugs. No visits.  No end in site?  HELP!

Ongoing protests,  civil unrest, California fires out of control, tornadoes, Hurricanes, floods, Covid-19….HELP!

Drained and weary from the World?

Help is closer than we realize.

I have a personal “get away”  — I don’t need a vacation, a fancy restaurant, or a massage at an award winning spa… ( not that there is anything wrong with that!)

Who is my personal get-away?  My LORD!  Who will never leave me, nor forsake me.  He will help me through it all, in a gentle fashion, and uplift me, and minister Life and light, to the “Death and Darkness,” that seems to be all over the place these days.

My personal get away.  My Savior, who shed blood for me.

I am safe within the confines of His wings.

Of whom should I fear when my God is near?

The LORD is my light and my salvation— so why should I be afraid? The LORD is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble? (Psalm 27:1 NLT)

I go boldly to His throne, and lay my troubles down at His feet, as I praise Him daily.  He cares and He readily picks me up when I am down.  He holds me up if I am weary.  He gives me drink so I am never thirsty.

So there is absolutely no better “get away” than that  of being in the LORD’s courts.   He sustains and encourages me and supports me in all that I do. And He loves me!  Me!  Amen!

Want the best get-away that money can’t buy?

RUN straight to Him, and let your soul be replenished, as you seek His face, and Kingdom.

I promise you, that His promises, and love, are all that we will ever need, today, tomorrow, forever!

 

“Father God, thank You for keeping me safe all the days of my life, and for bringing me peace, light, life, and love, in Jesus name, Amen.”

 

 

Psalm 118:6
The LORD is with me; I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?

 

Isaiah 33:2
O LORD, be gracious to us! We wait for You. Be our strength every morning and our salvation in time of trouble.

 

Isaiah 41:10
Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be afraid, for I am your God. I will strengthen you; I will surely help you; I will uphold you with My right hand of righteousness.
