Biblical Musings 14

View Down from Masada

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. Selah  Psalms 46:1-3 (NIV)

What does it mean that God is our refuge? Does this mean we will not have any problems?
