Take Refuge in the Lord


“Let’s not enter into this game where complaining is our life …. If something doesn’t go take refuge in the Lord, confide with Him ….. let’s not eat complaining, because it takes away hope, takes away the horizon and closes us in like a wall. And from there you cannot get out. But the Lord has patience and knows how to get us out of this situation.” ~ Pope Francis

“Non entriamo in questo gioco di vivere dei lamenti... ma se qualcosa non va rifugiamoci nel Signore, confidiamoci con Lui... non mangiamo lamentele, perché queste tolgono la speranza, tolgono l’orizzonte e ci chiudono come con un muro. E da lì non si può uscire. Ma il Signore ha pazienza e sa come farci uscire da questa situazione”. ~ Papa Francesco


The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. Psalm 18:2

Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. Psalm 34:8

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans. Psalm 118:8
