As in so many parts of life, there are two ways of dealing with trouble and tragedy. The world says “handle it yourself, stand on your own two feet”, while the Bible tells us to turn to God. Today on The Dwelling Place, our journey through the Psalms continues as we look at Psalm eighty-one. This Psalm is packed with powerful words. When you face a trial in your life, what’s your first reaction? We call ourselves “Christians”, and we love to share with others about our relationship with God, but do we really believe what we tell others?  Do we really turn to God first in a time of trial?
