"O taste and see that the LORD is good; How blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!"
Everyone finds refuge in something. For some it's sports, watching or playing their favorite game or maybe even reading a good book. In these things we find safe haven. Nothing bothers us when we've escaped into our refuge of choice. But God wants us to find our refuge in Him, to run into His arms when we need a place to escape to. His Word says "blessed is the man" who does this. What does it mean to be "blessed". It means to "be so happy as to be envied".. I'm learning how true that is. The more I take refuge in Christ, the happier I am. And of course, the reverse is true. When I drift away from His presence, life gets pretty miserable.
