He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.\u201d The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies. So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_layout=”dark” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|0px||0px|false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n We are here for you – just click on the Compass <\/span>button below to connect with us.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/aprilsky.net\/carelight\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/compass_white.png” alt=”Click for More Encouragement!” title_text=”compass_white” url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjExMzEwIn19@” align=”right” align_tablet=”right” align_phone=”right” align_last_edited=”on|desktop” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _dynamic_attributes=”url” _module_preset=”default” transform_translate_linked=”off” max_width=”125px” custom_margin=”20px|12.5%|0px|12.5%|false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||20px|0%|false|false” custom_margin_phone=”|||0%|false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” hover_enabled=”0″ border_radii=”on|18px|18px|18px|18px” border_width_all=”3px” border_color_all=”#a7eaec” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” admin_label=”Popup – #H234″ module_id=”H234″ module_class=”popup” _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#96cadd” background_enable_image=”off” max_width=”75%” max_width_tablet=”90%” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”|80px||80px|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”|40px||40px|false|true” custom_padding_phone=”|20px||20px|false|true” da_is_popup=”on” da_popup_slug=”H234″ da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” border_radii=”on|15px|15px|15px|15px” global_colors_info=”{}” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”rgba(0,0,33,0.57)” border_radii=”on|20px|20px|20px|20px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.1″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_padding=”|20px||20px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Your extra encouragement for this passage is waiting for you as soon as you sign up for a Free Friendly Chat, and select “Hummingbird” in the chat form.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Shelter He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.I will say to the Lord, \u201cMy refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.\u201dPsalm 91:1-2 The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.\u201dExodus 14:14 The name of the Lord […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"\r\n Simply Calm<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Our lives reflect joy, sorrow and pain\u2026 As we fly with adventure or walk in the rain\u2026 Storms can beat us, discourage our hearts within\u2026 but God's Joy and Hope makes us dance again\u2026 Some moments make us happy as we celebrate with delight\u2026 Other moments can terrify us and force us to fight\u2026 This is life through trial and test \u2026 And the only thing which makes it best\u2026 is God's Son\u2026 JESUS! ~ Jodie Mitchell<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Simply Calm<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Since this unprecedented time of Covid-19, one word that keeps coming up is adapt. All of us have been adapting the best we can while taking steps for a new normal of life. We at April Sky Ministries have been doing the same and we too are adapting by finding new ways to help those who are filled with questions about life, God and other things.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Getting encouragement to you and those you know is of the utmost importance to us. So, during this time of Covid-19 Crisis, we are offering a few special complimentary services that we know will calm your heart and help you connect with God. Learn more about us and our mission statement, visit About April Sky.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n The following \"Escapes\" are currently being offered free of charge, but you must sign up, as there are limited slots available.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Tranquil Escapes ~ These are escapes that are very personal through texts, video links, and more, which you can receive by phone.

Shelter<\/strong><\/p>\n
I will say to the Lord, \u201cMy refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.\u201d
Psalm 91:1-2<\/span><\/p>\n
Exodus 14:14<\/span><\/p>\n
the righteous man runs into it and is safe.
Proverbs 18:10<\/span><\/p>\n
The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?
Psalm 27:1<\/span><\/p>\n
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.
Psalm 27:4<\/span><\/p>\n
2 Cor 4:7-10<\/span><\/p>\n
2 Cor 4:16-18<\/span><\/p>\n
1) Read the Bible: When we read in the beautiful Book of Psalms, we will find God calms us, by His Word.
2) Pray for others: Ask others how you can pray for them and ask them to pray for you. When we start praying for those in worse off situations than ourselves, it occupies our minds and builds our faith.
3) Wait on the Lord: This is by no means easy but when we believe and trust that God's Timing is perfect, we realize that Jesus is in the same waiting room with us during the moments we need Him most, and we are not alone.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
