Seeking solution to your problems?

Living in FEAR?

It was while I was reading Psalm 63 that I checked its background or the context in which it was being written. I was surprised to find what you are gonna read now.

At this time David is running for his very life and in fear of Saul in wilderness. For David knows that if Saul should find David, that would be David’s last day. But 1 Samuel 23:14 says God didn’t give him in Saul’s hand. The reason was, David truly loved God and undoubtedly God too. Therefore Psalm 63:1 describes the bonding David had with God, so much so that in times of difficulty he chose to "seek God and not run away from Him."

As this thought dawned upon me, I was thinking about our state. We often go away from God or start complaining in the midst of troubles. But when fear surrounded David, he ran to God where he found his true courage and strength and most importantly an assurance and hope of life.

Yeah probably David wasn’t an educated person for he always tended sheep since his youth. But he got to learn one thing which we all must learn, i.e., hold on to God in times of fear and troubles which makes all the difference.

Do we run away from God when things go wrong or draw near?

Friends, solutions to our problems rest with God. Draw near to God today, He’ll speak to you. Remember, when we focus much on our problems we belittle God, and when we turn our focus to God, we belittle our problems.

God bless you
