“I sought the Lord, and he answered me and rescued me from all my fears.” (Psalm 34:4 CSB)

Who or what do you look toward when you’re in fear? Is it friends, family, money, or some other worldly comfort? While these things are not inherently bad, we must remember that the only One who can truly calm our fears and soothe our sorrows is God.

It’s hard to determine what kind of circumstances prompted these words from David, but one thing is clear, he knew that God was the only One that he could turn to for true and lasting comfort. God was the only One capable of rescuing him. Sweet sister, let this be a blessed reminder for us today. Don’t wait for the world to rescue you. Look to Jesus!
