A man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest. —ISA. 32:2.

Forasmuch . . . as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same. —The man that is my fellow, saith the Lord of hosts. —I and my Father are one.

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. —There shall be a tabernacle for a shadow in the daytime from the heat, and for a place of refuge, and for a covert from storm and from rain. —The Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

When my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. —Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble. —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.

I thank God for this reading and His promises therein: Daily Light on the Daily Path | December 1, Morning.

I headed for bed last night, feeling very overwhelmed. Bleak, really. Desperate and defeated, if you will.

(Yeah, feelings are terrible liars sometimes; other times, frightful barometers and/or thermometers.)

So I reached for God and the Scriptures. He lifted my spirit (again), this time with this:

There is a hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease. —Job 14:7.

A bruised reed shall he not break. —He restoreth my soul.Godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. —No chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless, afterward it yieldeth the peaceful fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

Before I was afflicted I went astray: but now have I kept thy word. —After all that is come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespass, seeing that thou our God hast punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and hast given us such deliverance as this.

Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord shall be a light unto me. He will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.

Isa. 42:3. -Psa. 23:3. II Cor. 7:10. -Heb. 12:11. Psa. 119:67. -Ezra 9:13. Mic. 7:8,9.
