“But make everyone rejoice who puts his trust in you. Keep them shouting for joy because you are defending them. Fill all who love you with your happiness. For you bless the godly man. O Lord; you protect him with your shield of love.” (Psalm 5:11-12 TLB).
Where is your security today? Is it in something that can be taken away? If so, you are on dangerous ground.
What about your happiness? Does you happiness depend upon the outward circumstances of your life? If so, your happiness at best will be fleeting.
But, if your security is in God, if your happiness springs from within, from your relationship with Him, you are on solid ground; you are truly secure because you are kept by His power which is unlimited. What a marvelous place of rest that is! How comforting to know that even in the torrential down-pours of this life, those who put their hope in the Lord are promised the sure protection of His unfailing love.
