Joel 3:16 - The Lord is a refuge

The Lord will roar from Zion
     and thunder from Jerusalem;
     the earth and the heavens will tremble.
But the Lord will be a refuge for his people,
     a stronghold for the people of Israel.

All around us bad things are happening and the causes are countless. It might be the fault of our family, friends, neighbors, city/state/national governments, the weather, society, political groups, etc. It might be our own fault. It might be Satan's fault. It might be God's fault. Regardless of where the trouble comes from, we do not have to be afraid. God is our refuge. We can always take shelter and rest in him. Peace is always available in every circumstance.

Lord, thank you for being our refuge. We know in this life there will be trouble, please help us to take shelter in you. Amen.
