Refuge in God

August 9, 2009 | by | Category: English Thursdays

If you are a Christian, don’t love this world! Don’t get too attached to this world! If you do, you are heading in a different direction from growing closer to God. Paul said “I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ…” (Phil. 3:8).

Certainly, we all face hardships in our lives. How do we respond to them? Where do we find refuge from them?
King David…even though he could find refuge in material or physical things, he found refuge in God. You can find refuge in God only if you have a personal relationships with Him. The very first thing you do (or did) after becoming a Christian is taking refuge in the fact that Jesus has died for your sins and made you a new creature.

Do you personally know God and do you take refuge in Him?
