Happy Easter!

"God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging." Psalm 46 1-3 NIV

It seems like the Lord keeps bringing me back to meditating on this scripture. A severe storm passed through tonight. A little over a week ago, the huge Bradford Pear tree in our front lawn toppled from high winds, at least a big chunk of it did. You know, I have never really been afraid of weather storms, but this year I have "weathered" some storms in my personal life and yes, I confess I do have some fear that there may be more to come. Lord, forgive me for not trusting more. This scripture is a good anchor for me and hopefully, it is for anyone who might read this as well.
