Therefore

We are in the midst of a pandemic and our anxiety grows.

But we must remember.

Therefore. 

That's the word we must remember.

It's there in Psalm 46, right between verses 1 and 2. 

Therefore is a word of conclusion. 

It's a word that says because this is true.

Therefore is a word we need to hold on to.

When we are stressed. 

And when we are frustrated. 

And especially when we are anxious.


"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.  Therefore, we will not fear, though the earth should change and though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea."  (Psalm 46:1-2 NASB, emphasis mine)
