A Mighty Fortress is God for Evotion

Psalm 46
God is our shelter and strength, 
      always ready to help in times of trouble.
 2 So we will not be afraid, even if the earth is shaken 
      and mountains fall into the ocean depths;
 3 even if the seas roar and rage, 
      and the hills are shaken by the violence.
 
While updating "Like None Before",  a devotional book study of Hezekiah's leadership, the present application of ancient words stirred me.
 
This psalm was written after an army of millions stood at the door of the city and were turned back.  It is one of the greatest miracles of deliverance.
 
Martin Luther used it as inspiration for "A Mighty Fortress". 
 
Though the tornadoes crash and waters rise, He is God.
Though the politics confuse and decisions consternate, He is God.
Though life rejects my way and people pursue pain, He is God.
Though economies rattle and companies crumble, He is God.
 
He is God, Evotion.
He is God in the crashing.
He is God in the rising.
He is God in the confusion.
He is God in the consternation.
He is God in the rejection.
He is God in the pain.
He is God in the rattle.
He is God in the crumble.
He is God.
He is Faithful.
He is Ever Present.
He is Ever Good.
He is Ever Forgiving.
He is Ever Powerful.
He is Ever Knowing.
He is on the side of Evotion.
