Psalm 119:114–God is the Hiding Place

Psalm 119:114: "You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word."

This had been said many times–several times by me in the last month–but life can be overwhelming.  From jobs, to bills, to kids, to volunteering, to being a spouse, and all the other pressures that weigh on us, it is easy to be overwhelmed or to feel like all the strains are continually attacking us at every turn.  Because of this it is a good thing, a necessary thing to remember this verse and those like it.

Our hope is made secure in God and in God alone.  It is always a comfort, then, to be reminded that we are not alone in the muck and mire of this life; we have God as our hope and our hiding place amidst the storms.  Let us then always seek to rest our hope in God and in Him alone!
