151. Christ is Our Refuge Once Again
Trigger and Context:
We remain...suspended in "self isolation" in the Great Covid19 Pandemic [Insanity] of 2020. We have not been allowed to engage in our typical worship activities for more than three months. This is...unprecedented. Words fail me.
Believing "relief is in sight", we began the "Cookie Crusade" and began delivering treats to the Saints in their homes. We were given an express message to communicate with the cookies. These are the words we were given.
“Christ is Our Refuge Once Again”
At times the world’s a frightful place,
As spite and rage now fill the air
You long to see a friendly face,
To shield your soul from fear’s despair.
Christ is your shelter from life’s storms,
Christ is your constant, steadfast friend.
Trust Him to keep you safe and warm,
His care for you will never end.
He’s bid us hug you in His name.
He’s asked we kiss your worried face.
He cares for every child the same.
Their hurts to heal; their sins erase.
Despite the madness of our days,
Despite those who would crush our faith.
God’s power descends and with us stays.
And by His Spirit we’re kept safe.
Christ is our refuge once again.

Moses 7-18
“And the Lord called his people Zion, because they were of one heart and one mind, and dwelt in righteousness; and there was no poor among them.”
Isaiah 25: 4
“For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.”
Psalms 62: 1-2, 7-8
Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.
He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge is in God.
Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

Weebly is not working at all well: (1) my editing access is limited; (2) my formatting commands are often ignored. It is obvious that I must find a new service provider and move everything there. The "printing problem" must also be addressed. However, I await certain future events before this switch is possible.
