My God is Big!

Have you ever had a situation where you felt like you were facing a formidable foe? From time to time I think we all do. What if your foe was seemed visibly large, strong, looming and intimidating? Maybe it might cause you to jump back, retreat or even hide. This picture of a huge wall of dust in Australia gives a great visual to what I'm talking about. Sometimes our foes can seem as big as this wall of dust. What foes and enemies try to do is cause us to fear. Their intimidation attacks us head on with the goal of making us tremble. However, Psalm 27 gives us such strength. Verse 1-3 tell us, "The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid? The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble when evil people come to devour me,  when my enemies and foes attack me,  they will stumble and fall. Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid.
Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident." What should we remain confident in? The Lord being our fortress and protector! Yes today you may face your foe, but don't be intimidated or worry. The Lord is with you and will fight on your behalf. All you need to do is remain confident in Him :)
