Bringing Refuge
In Psalm 31, David prays to the Lord for guidance - the One who’d proven Himself “rock and refuge” time-and-again. One cannot miss in this Psalm the link between prayer and trust. Because David trusts in the Lord, he can pray confidently for direction and help. Advent is all about God’s leading and guiding too. Even when our trek feels relentlessly uphill, we can trust the God who summited Calvary Himself and lives to guide us in ours.
