Psalm 57
New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)
**********************
Caleb left his bear at school the other day. He has about 4,298 stuffed animals, but there are a few that he keeps particularly close. Somehow, he notices if just one of them are missing, but there are several that he does not cope well without. Last night, we realized as we got home that his bear had been left at school.
It did not go well.
That bear gave him a sense of peace, a refuge in a crazy world.
We are called to treat God in the same way--to cling to him, and allow his peace to prevail in our lives. God is a constant presence for us, giving us something to cling to in the midst of the storms and chaos and busy-ness of life. No matter what comes, God can be our refuge, and nothing shall tear us from him.
May you feel the peace of God's presence today
