Psalm 46: God is Exalted

Several weeks into the coronavirus pandemic and a few days into being told that Dallas was placed under a shelter-in-place mandate and I felt my anxiety rising. Seeing some of the grocery store aisles completely empty was the beginning. Hearing about the increased lock-down measures was the catalyst. Yet, God has been ever faithful to calm my heart through Psalm 46, and I thought it would be good to take some time to work through that in the hope that it provides myself and others some much needed encouragement and stability.

Psalm 46: Peace, Stability, and the Sovereignty of God

Now the threat of this virus has upended our daily lives. Companies are forced to figure out work from home solutions where they can, and let people go where they must.

This is part one of a three part series.
