Read Psalm 46:1 in the NABRE onlineOur God is our refuge and strength: a helper in troubles, which have found us exceedingly.
Reflection
Refuge and strength together: a place to hide and the power to stand. The help is described as present, not on its way.
A very present help
Refuge and strength: a place to hide and the power to stand. The word present is the surprising one — the help is not on its way, it is already here. The psalmist wrote this when the world was shaking, which is exactly when you need to know.
