Take Refuge in the Lord




            Have you had your Joy Juice today?  Don’t depend on someone else to give you their serving of joy. Your daily portion is always ready, but you must be willing to accept it!

            We may not always be able to trust what people say. Sometimes they purposefully mislead us; other times they have good intentions, but don’t follow through for one reason or another. People with integrity truly aim at keeping their word, yet we are all human and can fall short and fail.

            Like Psalm 118:8 tells us:   
“It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in man.”   People can let us down; but God is ALWAYS trustworthy.  He is our protector, our provider and our wise guide. We can “cast all our anxieties on him, because he cares for us” as 1 Peter 5:7 reminds us. 

            There will be times that we experience anxious situations and find ourselves in turmoil. A great verse to remember at those times is Psalm 65:3:   “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.”  Ever said those words to God?  Talk to Him on a personal level and let Him calm your fears. He is trustworthy. He is faithful. He is loving. He is our hope.

             Put away all fear and anxiety by trusting in God and accepting your daily portion of joy in the Lord.
