Sometimes I think that the world is like a troubled sea,so much unrest,one thing after another,that's not counting ones personal difficulties ,and trials.Se here is what God say's,in Nahum 1 v 7 ,'The Lord is good ,a refuge in times of trouble,He cares for those who trust in Him'.The first thing it tells us that God is a good .I have experienced the goodness of God all through my life.He has always been there for me,in times of sadness,in difficult times,all the time.I could mention many things to confirm that.Money was very short,in fact often we had none,yet we prayed.One day a there was a knock at our door,when we opened it there was a man with a basket load of shopping,he said someone had asked him to deliver that.Next we have God mentioned as a refuge in times of trouble.It was the time of the Mau Mau troubles in Kenya, often African Christians were targeted,one day a Christian was faced with a Mau Mau pointing a pistol at his head.A verse of scripture came inti his head,'The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run into it and are safe'.(Proverbs18 v10),so he immediately shouted out .' Jesus ,Tower',four times he did this,and four times his attacker fired his pistol and didn't hit him.'Last but not least,'He cares for those who trust in Him'.let us remember there is one who is looking after us,His name is Jesus.
