Scripture: “God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.” Psalm 46:1 (NLT).

Prayer: Lord, thank You for being my safe refuge. In moments of trouble, help me to run to You first, not last. Thank You that You are not distant but present, ready to help me when I call. In Jesus’ name, Amen and thank God.

Reflection (Encouragement + Prompt): When trouble comes, do I see God as far away or as present and near?

Application / Coping Skill: When you feel stressed today, whisper: “God, You are my refuge and strength.”

Closing: God is my refuge, my strength, and my ever-present help.
