"I will say of the Lord, 'He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.'" ~Psalm 91:2, NIV
Humans are funny creatures. Not everything we say is true, but the things we say, think or believe often become true. What we believe is often not true, but by knowing the truth we can choose to believe it.
And even if we don't believe it yet, at least not at that gut level of certainty we all so desire, we can make it true. That's why the author of Psalm 91 starts his psalm with a declaration of truth, and then a statement declaring his declaration of truth.
It doesn't matter if you believe it now, what matters is that the above verse is true. Jesus, God: they are a safe place to be, the one thing in life you can trust. By choosing to say that, by choosing to believe it, you make it true for yourself. And with that truth, all fears tends to just vanish into smoke...
