The Day of Distress?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know you are a refuge in the day of distress. In Jesus’ amen.
Are you in distress and experiencing any of the following? Sorrow? Suffering? Anguish? Grief? Misery? Pain?
David, the psalmist, had men who wanted him dead. The two verses of Psalm 59:16-17 (ESV) show his confidence in God.
“But I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress.
O my Strength, I will sing praises to you,
for you, O God, are my fortress,
the God who shows me steadfast love.”
Do you have the same response to crises? Ask God for help. God will walk with you through even the most difficult situations.
