Hebrews 13:6 This is why we can confidently say – The Lord is my helper and I won’t be afraid. What can people do to me?
I hope “wolf” came to your mind when you ended the above title. If you think about that classic children’s story, those little pigs are in a bad way and honestly, they have every reason to be scared. If I had a hunter like the wolf on my trail, I think I’d be a bit nervous. It wasn’t until they found protection of brick that they could finally rest and feel safe.
You know, sometimes it can feel like we have a wolf on our tails – whether it be because you’re not getting along with your best friend and/or spouse, or maybe it’s the bills and you’re a bit behind. Could it be something at work or with your children?
No matter the single or combined cause, we’ve all had a time in our lives where it feels as though that wolf is breathing down your back and you just need to find refuge – a house made of bricks with a sturdy door to hide behind.
God can be that refuge – that brick house and sturdy door – and we all have a key. Find a quiet spot and simply go to Him in prayer. Ask Him for help to bring peace into your life, and safety from those things that you fear. Then you too can sing, “Who’s afraid of the big bad…”
Share with us your fears, your concerns. We will pray for, and with, you.
