1 Preserve me, O God, for I take refuge in You… 5 The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; you support my lot… 11 You will make known to me the path of life; in Your presence is the fullness of joy; in Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
Psalm 16:1, 5, 11
Beloved:
There are some things that are unavoidable. The stress of life. Unpredictable outcomes. Fractured relationships. Difficult people. And of course, the three trackers that are on all our trails: death, time, and change. The point is that with as much as we would desire life to always be in our control, there is a limit to the control that we really have.
What we need is security during insecure situations. But where can that security be found? It is found in the presence of our God. The psalmist knew that he had made an excellent choice in His God and nothing could separate them, not even death. The key was to continually focus on God and revel in His presence. Thus, security during an insecure world is found in fellowship with our God.
In His presence we are Safe and Secure!
BE ENCOURAGED!
