Don’t Be Afraid

Psalm 121

  Where are you in your quest for security?  Truly we live in some turbulent terror filled times and therefore people hunger for security.  Just think about it, terms such as Social Security- Financial Security – Homeland Security – and the Security of Life Insurance are all household phrases imbedded into our society, because we want to feel safe and secure. 

  The Pilgrims in Psalm 121 were just like us, they too wanted to live with a guarantee of security and safety as they journeyed, and they had options to choose from just like us. 

  However, praise the Lord that they chose Him and Him alone as their source of security and satisfaction.

  What are you choosing today? Who are you choosing today? Is it the stock market?  Is it your career or credentials? Is it yourself?
   
  May your come to the same conclusion as the Psalmist who said, My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.  Which means that regardless of the difficulties in the days ahead, unlike the world, we can have peace and security in our hearts because we know that the Master is holding us in His hands.
   
  Leaning, Leaning, on the Everlasting arm- safe and secure from all alarms….

  So Don’t Be Afraid…..
