God is our Refuge

Psalm 121:1-8

This Psalm speaks words of promises about God's providence and protection in our life.
Verse 1: I lift up my eyes to the mountains where does my help come from?

In this life full of dangers like disease, accident, war, natural disasters or best example is this pandemic, that was only on physical, how about Spiritual? Such as doubt, sin, evil thoughts, false teaching etc.

Normal lang na itanong natin sa sarili natin iyan na saan nga ba nanggagaling ang tulong natin or sino ang tutulong satin?
The answer is on Verse 2.
"My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth."

-This verse tells us na wala or hindi natin matatagpuan ang rest or hiding place ang mountains kasi possible na nandun pa yung threat talaga sa buhay, mga predators kumbaga. Maybe we should look up "Above" the mountains, to the one who made it, to the one who made the heaven and earth. Why?

Because in Verse 3-8 says,
3. He will not let your foot slip,
He who watches over you will not slumber.
4. Indeed, He who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. (Proof na hindi natutulog ang Diyos) <3
5. The Lord watches over you,
the Lord is your shade at your right hand.
6. The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
7. The Lord will keep you from all harm,
He will watch over your life.
8. The Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.

-Dito makikita natin na si God is truly a keeper and our protector, as He will protect, shield and watch over us day and night, tulog man tayo o gising.
Pero hindi sinasabi sa mga promises na to na never ka ng makaka experience ng temptation, chalenges or trials. Kundi itong mga promises na to ay ilan lang sa mga gagawin or ginagawa ng Lord para sa mga taong totoong nagrerely sa Kanya, yung buo ang faith sa Kanya. We should not look sa mountain na nakaharang satin, we should not also be weary sa mga threat na dala nito but rather let's seek the one who created it because our God is greater, stronger and higher than any other. God is our refuge.

God bless everyone!
