Thought for Today: Friday December 23:

A refuge is a place safely out of harm’s way. A fortress is a fortified building that is virtually impenetrable by conventional means. Martin Luther wrote a wonderful hymn that says: [A Mighty Fortress is our Elohiym; a Bulwark never failing. Our Helper He amidst the flood; of mortal ills prevailing.] What a statement about the magnificent Power and Protect of HaShem! Does YHVH care for you and me? Can we turn to Him in trust and faith when troubles and temptations threaten to overwhelm us? YES! – A thousand times yes! What greater proof do we need than that He sent His Son Yeshua Moshiach to die in our place?
