Your Refuge

Glory to God!

In the past, as the Bible tells us, many people needed the shelter of God. David suffered much persecution, but God preserve this man. Elijah being pursued by the Queen, God gave instructions to his refuge in this way was fed by ravens. Noah himself was preserved through the chest. Israel´s People was for forty years covered by the Lord Almighty in the wilderness. Paul took refuge on the island of Malta in its sinking. Jesus took refuge in Egypt during his childhood.

Today we also need the shelter of our Lord. There are many things that deviate from the path laid by the Lord to us. Today, the media entertains us for failing to see what's really important, many people are mired in its own vices, and therefore require a shelter to protect from themselves. There are even people who need refuge from their own families and friends.

God came to Earth to give us life and life in abundance. He paid with His blood my sins and yours, died and rose again the third day and said that he would not leave us alone, but accompany us until the end of time. Now we do not see him, but we can feel him, because He is the Holy Spirit. He is our refuge. The Lord will liberate you from the wiles of the devil and evil of people. The Lord will keep your thoughts and your heart will heal.

Jesus Christ does not despise a contrite and humiliated heart. Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help in time of need. Let the water jump to everlasting life and let us run with patience the race that lies ahead.

Put your eyes on Jesus, the author of our faith.

Amen.
