“To be near God is my happiness. I have made the Lord my refuge.”

Feeling some consolation from Psalm 73:28 this morning while praying the Liturgy of the Hours. Wanted to share with anyone who could use a bit of consolation as well.

Life can be challenging and hard. When we keep our eyes on Jesus and seek his strength, instead of focusing on the crashing waves of the challenge, Jesus may calm the storm. Then again he may not. If he does not, he will give us the strength and accompany us through it to the shore on firm ground.
