This week’s meditation is on Psalm 91:2:

I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress,
    my God, in whom I trust.”

Lord, last week was tough. It is still on our minds. We saw senseless violence and murder, and it was all over words and differences of opinion. Lord, I can’t wrap my head around this, and I cannot understand it. What has happened to our culture when we cannot have a civil disagreement without violence?

I struggle to understand this even though I know that you are in control. I still can’t help but ask why. But I put my trust in you, for you are my refuse and my fortress.

Lord, there is a sickness in this world, we are broken and our souls need healing. I pray, Lord, that maybe people will begin to understand that what they need is you. I pray that somehow this will lead to a reawakening.

Lord, I am at a loss for words, please bring healing to us, and some type of peace to the family Charlie Kirk left behind.

I ask this in Jesus’ precious name.

Amen
