7 things you find in "The Shadow of His Wings"

When times seem hard, 
when you want to stay in bed with the covers over your head,
when you want to hide...


...hide in the shadow of His wings...
Be gracious to me, O God, be gracious to me, For my soul takes refuge in You; And in the shadow of Your wings I will take refuge until destruction passes by.                                                                                 Psalm 57:1

here you will find:

a covering 
protection
a hiding place
shelter
refuge
a place of singing
joy

There is a progress under His wings....we run there in a time of neediness, of vulnerability, perhaps even fear...then as we find comfort and refuge, in other words, we feel safe once again...we return to a state of joy, perhaps as we step out in song and praise, expressing our confidence in our Lord.

I have felt this way - haven't you?


Scripture References for the list (in order):  Psalm 91:4, Luke 13:34, Psalm 61:4, Psalm 17:8, Psalm 36:7, Psalm 63:7
