You are my refuge and my shield; your word is my source of hope.
Psalms 119:114 NLT
To need a refuge and a shield their must be something to fear, something we need protection from...what is it in your life?
For me it's often the battle within...about choices, attitudes, actions...fears...
What about you?
And where do we turn?
The Psalmist looks to our God first & foremost.
And it is in Him that hope is placed. In His word.
The word became flesh and dwelled amongst us, personified God, represents God to us, and represents us to God.
In him is my hope.
That Jesus is who he said he is...and that one day all will be made new

...four men arrived carrying a paralyzed man on a mat. They couldn't bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, so they dug a hole through the roof above his head. Then they lowered the man on his mat, right down in front of Jesus... Mark 2:3-4 NLT Great account of inventiveness and determination to get their friend to see Jesus. Love this. Do you wonder about the back story? Are these the same 4 people who bring this man food? Take him to the toilet every day. Clean him up. Does he live with one of them? Are they family? Are there whole families or groups of people in the background who have supported and cared for this man? A group of children who grew up seeing their parents love in action? Probably. Healing Help Hope These things are found in community. These 4 guys are the heroes here. The upfront people. One day it will be interesting to see who the background heroes are. #loveinaction #community #inthistogether #walkingeachotherhome #gospelofmark
