The LORD is good,
a stronghold
in the day of trouble;
He knows those who take
refuge in Him.
Nahum 1. 7
(Deep and steep in the mountains
of Italy and Switzerland
are multiple refugio's,
huts scattered along the trails,
a welcome sight for hikers
to rest and refresh with food
and a place to spend the night.
A refugio is not a place to hide,
but to be strengthened
along life's journey.
God's Presence is there.
"Come to Me," He beckons.
He is our stronghold.
He has a strong hold on us.
In God's refugio,
we have a standing reservation.
The porch light is on.
We have a place at the table
with our name on it.)
O LORD,
You are good.
In the days (plural) of trouble
or the seasons of clear skies,
we can turn to You.
Help us to not forget
You are with us.
May we recognize
the reality of Your Presence,
even on the tough climbs,
the miry bogs,
and rocky paths.
We are not alone.
You hike with us.
You are our refuge
and strength.
Your steadfast love
has no expiration date.
