Our family’s vacation this summer was a five-day explore of western Nebraska, our family’s new home state.

We swung around the north edge to see a waterfall on the Niobrara River. We were told to check out Fort Robinson, and had the treat of going on a horseback trail ride with only us four and the guide. And we made sure to see the iconic geological landmarks of the Monument and Chimney Rock.

But the most memorable story was made on the day we stopped by Chadron State Park. This story continues to remind us of God’s love and care for us!

REFUGE. A safe place you run to for protection, comfort, to escape trouble.

What is your refuge?

We each have our go-to’s. A friend, work, media, our home, a role or position (whether as a mom, ministry, or work related), exercise, coffee, … sugar! While these are good gifts to enjoy, they all fail us. God is our only reliable refuge.
