I Will Take Refuge - Psalm 57:1


Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me,
    for in you my soul takes refuge.
I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings
    until the disaster has passed.
 

Look to the Lord


Look to the Lord 
    and His strength   

                               - Psalm 105:4 and 1 Chronicles 16:11 
              or 

Look to the storm
    in your own strength.

Choices


I can choose to
Fret and Fume, and Grumble and Gripe,
or I can choose to
Focus by Faith on the Goodness of God,
and look for Joy on the Journey.

Wisdom From The Book Of Colossians


So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, 
  continue to live in Him, rooted 
        and built up in Him,
    strengthened in the faith as you were taught, 
      and overflowing with thankfulness.
                                                                 - Colossians 2:6-7

As God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, 
  clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, 
    humility, gentleness, and patience. 
Bear with each other and forgive 
        whatever grievances
  you may have against one another.
Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 
And over all these virtues put on love, 
  which binds them all together in perfect unity.
                                                                - Colossians 3:12-14

And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, 
  do it all in the name of the Lord, 
    giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
                                                                 - Colossians 3:17
