THE WORD  – Over and over again we find this scripture to ring true.

I broke my wrist last week. God was present in my trouble. He led me safely to a Dr. and fixed up with a cast within two hours. Now I am leaning hard on my refuge and strength, my Jesus who is also my Healer.

That evening a truck veered off the road, crashed through our front hedges, flipped over our driveway narrowly missing our two cars and landed in our side yard.

Emergency vehicles were here for hours. They tried to airlift the driver to hospital but he died en route. Jesus, our present help in trouble. We could have been out getting the mail and directly in the truck’s path. Our cars could have been totaled. Someone else could have been hit since he was on the wrong side of the road.

God, our refuge and strength. We don’t realize how often God protects us as we try to walk right before Him.

Has He rescued you this week? Do you find Him to be your refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble?

Please pray for the man’s family in their loss of a loved one.
