God is Our Refuge
Nahum 1:7
The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knows them that trust in him.…


A heathen could say, when a bird, scared by a hawk, flew into his bosom for refuge, "I will not kill thee, nor betray thee to thine enemy, seeing thou fliest to me for sanctuary": much less will God either slay or give up the soul that takes sanctuary in His name.

(W. Gurnall.)
