Third Sunday of Lent 27th March
Amos 7.10-17
Psalm 46
Ephesians 6.10-20
John 4.5-42
 
Psalm 46
“God is our refuge and strength,..”
 
 
When I read this psalm, it reminds me again on how God’s endless love to his children. “God is our refuge and strength,..” this is a short verse but powerful and real. While we are still living in this world, we experience not only happiness and joy but also troubles and worries as part of our daily lives. There are times that our burden is so heavy that we just do not know what to think or to do about our problems. This is the time to let God taking over our burden and relies completely on his providence. In practice, this is easier to say than to do. We are used to have control of our lives and we to find solutions by ourselves. There are times when there is no light at the end of tunnel and things are beyond our control although we have done our best, seeking his guidance and praying. Be patient and let God do his part; be like a child who runs into his father’s arm looking for a comfort and protection, he is our father who never fails or let us down.
