What do I do when I have a desire to escape?

Psalm 139:7I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence!

Jeremiah 23:24“Can anyone hide from me in a secret place? Am I not everywhere in all the heavens and earth?” says the Lord.

No matter how far we run or where we go, God is always there, waiting for us to turn to him. We cannot escape from God.

Psalm 32:7You are my hiding place; you protect me from trouble. You surround me with songs of victory.

Psalm 46:1God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.

Psalm 57:1Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy! I look to you for protection. I will hide beneath the shadow of your wings until the danger passes by.

Nahum 1:7The Lord is good, a strong refuge when trouble comes. He is close to those who trust in him.

When we need to escape, we should run to the arms of our loving God.

Numbers 1:50-51“Put the Levites in charge of the Tabernacle of the Covenant, along with all its furnishings and equipment. They must carry the Tabernacle and all its furnishings as you travel, and they must take care of it and camp around it. Whenever it is time for the Tabernacle to move, the Levites will take it down. And when it is time to stop, they will set it up again. But any unauthorized person who goes too near the Tabernacle must be put to death.”

Some responsibilities may seem boring or dull—even worth escaping from—but fulfilling them wholeheartedly pleases God.
