When you're in deep distress, the worst part can be feeling unsure how to get out. It's at this point that many people cry out to God as their last hope. The writer of Psalm 46 wrote that even as mountains crumbled into the sea and the oceans roared and foamed, all was not lost: "We will not fear!" he wrote. "God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble" (Psalm 46:1-3).
