Psalm 20:7

Some trust in chariots and some in horses,

But WE will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God.

What makes you feel safe and secure?

Locked doors?

A house high above the flood plane?

A basement in tornado season?

Seatbelts?

A face mask?

A vaccine?

Those things all have something in common with chariots…..they are man made.

Why do tangible things give us a sense of so much security and yet our trust can waiver in the One who keeps the earth in perfect distance from the sun?

Is it because we can see the mask that supposedly keeps the invisible germs away from us as if it were some kind of a magical barrier?

Is it because we can make the effort of choosing safety ourselves by heading to a basement or clicking a seat belt and, therefore, we are suddenly impervious to destruction?

Is it based on our effort that we become SAFE?

Remembering, recalling, retelling

WHO God is,

WHAT God has done,

WHY God chooses us,

HOW God has been faithful to His people

AND TO YOU AS WELL OVER THE YEARS IN YOUR OWN LIFE

will help you to gain confident trust in the safe, strong, loving, merciful, righteous arms of our Savior.
Repeating the wonder of His grace that you have seen in your life brings Him to the forefront of your mind as the MIGHTY WARRIOR WHO SAVES.

Suddenly, you don’t need horses and chariots, basements and vaccines for safety and security…for you have perfect peace as you rest in the presence of who created you.

In His presence, He is all we need.

In His presence, you are made whole.

In His presence, you are strengthened to face your troubles be they a tornado or a virus.

Remember to trust in the name of our Lord.
