Psalm 61:4
Let me abide in your tent for ever,
find refuge under the shelter of your wings.
Some days I just want to pull the covers back up over my head and stay in bed. Maybe it's the gray and dreary weather outside the window. Maybe it's the gray and dreary tasks on my to-do list. Maybe it's just sheer human laziness. But sometimes I just want to stay put and not have to face the world.
"Let me abide in your tent forever." It would be wonderful to be able to stay in God's tent and not have to face the world and all its real-life problems and real-life situations. It would be nice to stay sheltered and comfy and cozy. But of course we can't stay there. We all need to face the day. We need to face what the day brings.
It's sure a good thing that God's tent is bigger than my bed, bigger than my home. God's tent follows me and shelters me wherever I go.
May you know God's presence and shelter today, wherever you roam.
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
