Happy Sunday Morning!
Proverbs 18:10 says "the NAME of the Lord is a strong tower. The righteous runs into it and is safe"
So, How does a Name make you safe?
It isn't the name so much, as what you do with it. Imagine a small child calling out , "Daddy!" . How fast does daddy respond? If there are tears, how fast does he scoop up the child and wrap them in his arms?
All it takes is one word.
A name
So it is with God. His ears are attuned to our voices. He knows the content of our cry as soon as His name is spoken. Whether we are happy, sad, scared, uncertain, lost, or just want to talk, His answer to our saying His name is to let us know He is right there.
If you read vs 11, you can see the contrast between the righteous and one who is worldly rich.
Who or what do we call on first when the need arises? Do we call on God, or our friends and family?
May the Lord bless you and keep you.. make His face shine upon you today.
Amen -- JP
