We have no reason to fear. God is great above all other gods. He is the one and only God. If He can create the simplest of flowers, how difficult is it for Him to rescue us from the sufferings of this present age?
“O LORD my God, in you do I take refuge;
save me from all my pursuers and deliver me,
lest like a lion they tear my soul apart,
rending it in pieces, with none to deliver.”(Psalms 7:1-2)
In our weakest state, in that moment when we are about to do anything to remove a trial from our lives, our only choice is to look to God. He, and He alone, will give us the relief we need to rise from our sufferings and move forward.
What may seem impossible to us is possible for God. What may seem extraordinary to us is ordinary to God. He takes the weak from the world, imparts His spirit and builds His church. We are of the body of Christ; fashioned of the same countenance; saved by God’s grace.
Our hope remains in God the Father, who sacrificed Jesus His Son for the forgiveness of our sins. We should count it all joy to know that our tribulations are for a purpose; and that is to change us to become more like Him every day.
No one other than God is our refuge.

God bless you, Joanne.
God has used my tribulations to crack through the hard shell around me and draw me closer to him. We are supposed to be thankful in everything. I don’t like some things that have happened, but I am thankful for them, for they turned me off to the world and made me prefer God over the world. Thank you, Jack Flacco.
May Jesus’ peace be with you. May God grant you rest in all your trials also. God bless.
And you also, Jack Flacco! Your posts are so peaceful and uplifting.

Praying over you today, Jack, speaking your own words of comfort back to you, to resonate and fill you with His presence. When is a burden ever light? When He carries it for us 🩷🙏 Speaking blessings over you and your family this Thanksgiving!

Thank you for sharing, Jack. You never know to whom God is speaking is put pen to paper. Thank you for giving God the glory and reminding us who our refuge is and where our refuge is. Be blessed.
May God grant you refuge and strength.
I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
