Under His everlasting arms
by Anonymous
This morning after I've read your journal, I searched for verses containing the word 'refuge'. The following two scriptures stood out:
Deut 33:24 & 27
Of Asher he said: Blessed above sons is Asher; let him be acceptable to his brothers, and let him dip his foot in oil.
The eternal God is your refuge and dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He drove the enemy before you and thrust them out, saying, Destroy!
After reading your blog and these scriptures I left for church. During the praise & worship service someone gave a word which can be summarized as follows: 'come into My arms, and I will heal you'.
Its amazing how the Lord works! We are connected - knitted together - even though we are in different countries, and different time zones. Col 2:2.
Thank you, may God bless you.
