As for me, I call to God and the LORD saves me. Cast your cares on the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken. Psalms 55: 16 and 22.
When I was in college I would come home at the end of the semester, crawl into a bed under my parent’s roof and sleep the deep, dreamless slumber of an innocent child. All my cares were put aside, the woes of the world were their’s to worry about for the night, I could get some rest.
This trend hasn’t changed much, although many years have past. I rely on the strength of my parents in other ways too, and just knowing we create a Power of Two or Three makes the world seems much less threatening. I want this same connection and security for my children.
What we seek in our earthly parents, what we long to do for our own children, Father God has already provided for us. Cast your cares like an exhausted, broke, unemployed and disillusioned college student home for the summer. God will not let you be shaken. Victory has been won long, long ago and there’s always room and rest at Dad’s, aka The Throne of God.
Love,
Gretchen
