Anniversaries

Scripture Reading: Psalm 91

Focus Verse: Psalm 91:1 “Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.”

Anniversaries are markers in our lives.  We have many anniversaries as we go through life.  Some are happy anniversaries like a wedding anniversary.  But we also have sad anniversaries such as the death of a loved one, and we remember the day they died each year that passes.

This past week America remembered a sad anniversary.  20 years ago America was attacked by terrorists and thousands of people died on September 11, 2001.  That is a sad day that all Americans can remember.  Also, I am remembering a happy 20th anniversary.  On September 19, 2001 was my first trip to Kenya on a missions trip.  That was the beginning of 20 years of ministry in Kenya.  Praise God I have seen thousands of people come to Christ.

But whether we have good anniversaries or sad anniversaries God, in Psalm 91, has promised that God is with us.  We can find shelter in Him and we can find rest in His shadow.  Life here on earth is not easy.  For many of us 2020 and 2021 have been very difficult years as we have gone through this pandemic.  But God will always be faithful.  He will never leave us or forsake us.  He has also promised us he will take us safely to heaven if we have put our faith and hope in Him.
