Psalm 91:3 4 says, "Surely he shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence. He shall cover you with his feathers, and under his wings, you shall take refuge." Every day, there seems to be another shooting, another vehicle driving into a crowd, another senseless act of violence. It appears that what used to be a common occurrence in other places is now beginning to happen much closer to home. As believers in Jesus Christ, we are promised a refuge from the lawlessness and fear, wanting now to flood into our daily lives. That refuge is in Him as we let His words and comfort fill our minds and hearts. He promises perfect peace when His words establish our thoughts to us. It's time to pray.
