—Psalm 4
by: Paula Davis.
What do you think of when you hear the word “refuge”? I think of a place to safely wait out a storm that threatens my normally peaceful setting. David knew God was this refuge not only from external storms of nature, but from storms of the heart as well or even from the storms of people who wanted to harm him. At the beginning of this Psalm, David confidently cried out to God and at the end, he declared that he could sleep in peace because of God’s refuge. Whatever storms you face today, I pray you will follow David’s example and cry out to God—trusting Him to be your refuge and to bring needed peace and rest.
