Psalm 91:9 (GNT) - You have made the Lord your defender, the Most High your protector,
The Psalmist reminds us that God is our protector.
There will be difficult days.
There will be challenging circumstances.
But even in difficult times, we can trust on the Lord to see us through them.
That is because we rely on His strength rather than our own.
John’s Gospel reminds us that Jesus is the way to the Father.
John 14:1 (GNT) - “Do not be worried and upset,” Jesus told them. “Believe in God and believe also in me.
My mother loved this verse.
I love it for her memory.
But I also love it for the truth within it.
Christ is the way to the Father.
So, when times are difficult, we are not to worry.
When we face difficult challenges, there is no call for us to become upset.
And just as we believe in God the Father, we also believe in Jesus the Son.
This puts me in mind of yet another Psalm.
Psalm 118:5 (GNT) - In my distress I called to the Lord; he answered me and set me free.
