THROUGH THE BIBLE IN THREE YEARS
If life were like a computer:
You could turn off the speakers when life gets too noisy.
You could click on “find” (Ctrl, F) to recover your lost remote control and car keys.
To get your daily exercise, just click on "run"!
If you mess up your life, you could always press "Ctrl, Alt, Delete" and start all over!

Nahum 1
7 The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.

But life is NOT like a computer, and we need to TRUST GOD!
God is "GOOD!" He is completely perfect, holy and righteous in all that He does.
God "KNOWETH" all those who love Him and have committed their trust to Him. He knows their joy and their hurt; their happiness and sorrow.
BECAUSE of this, God is a "strong hold" when we have trouble in our lives. He is the shelter to which we run when we face difficulty. "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." (Ps 46:1)
A man and his wife were traveling along a highway in Texas. They saw a tornado approaching, so they pulled the car under an overpass. About a half-mile ahead, they could see a farmhouse being torn apart by the tornado. The roof was lifted off and blown away. Then the walls collapsed. Furniture was lifted in the air and carried away.
After the storm passed, the man and his wife wanted to be sure no one was left under the rubbage of the house. They drove to it, and began to look around. Soon they found a "storm shelter" under the house. When they opened the door and looked in, there was a man kneeling by a beam that had fallen into the shelter with him.
The man and his wife asked the farmer, "Are you all right? Was anyone else with you?"
The man answered, "I seem to be ok! There's no one else here but God; and we were having an URGENT conversation!"
When troubles come, and they do, we should run to our SHELTER and have an URGENT conversation with HIM!
Love ya,
