The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe.
Proverbs 18:10
I have this funny mental image of a person running to a massive name and hiding behind it. It seems funny because the letters in the name could topple over at any moment doing more harm than good. When I read this text however I am grateful that firstly I don't have to physically run cause I am not good at it but that really it's a state of mind. I can turn myself to God and hide in his love from the wickedness of those around me including dare I say it myself!
