A Refuge and Fortress: a free large-print word search

A Refuge and Fortress, a free, large-print word search drawn from Psalm 91, where shelter, shadow, and angelic charge meet on one quiet page.

About A Refuge and Fortress

Psalm 91 is one of Scripture's most beloved songs of trust, a promise of shelter to those who dwell in the secret place of the Most High. Its images are vivid and layered: the wings of a great bird drawn over her young, a fowler's hidden snare foiled in the dark, arrows that fly by day and terrors that creep by night. Beneath all of it runs a single, unhurried confidence, that angels are given charge, that no step goes unguarded, and that the one who calls on the Lord will find a fortress that nothing can breach.
