Opening Prayer:

Lord, thank You for being my refuge. Help me run to You first in times of trouble. Amen.

Scripture:

"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble." — Psalm 9:9

Spiritual Nugget:

When the weight of the world feels heavy, God invites you to run to Him. He is not a temporary escape—He’s a safe place where you can breathe, regroup, and find strength again. Troubles don’t vanish overnight, but His presence gives you shelter from the storm. In His refuge, you’re reminded that you are not alone, and nothing can overpower His protection. When you feel pressed on every side, take comfort knowing His stronghold is unshakable.

Prayer:

Father, thank You for being my safe place when life feels overwhelming. Shelter me in Your presence and remind me that no trouble is too great for You. Help me trust in Your strength instead of my own. Let my heart find peace and courage as I rest in Your refuge. Amen.
