While cleaning up some wood piles, I found this mushroom tucked away inside a maple wood round. It made me think of shelter, so I did some searching in the Bible and found this verse.

For in the day of trouble
    he will keep me safe in his dwelling;
he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent
    and set me high upon a rock.

Psalm 27:5

With all the political battles reported in the news it feels like we need a refuge. I like how this verse promises that God will look out for us in the day of trouble.

Just like the wood surrounding this mushroom is nice and solid, we can trust God and His word.
