Fantastic Friday #422 - Protection

Protection

11 But let all who take refuge in you be glad;
    let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
    that those who love your name may rejoice in you. 12 Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous;
    you surround them with your favor as with a shield. Psalm 5:11-12

Where do you turn for protection?  Sometimes we aren't protected from things that can harm us.  It may be the random viewing of something we shouldn't be looking at, or it may be some outside random object that can knock us down.  The thing that we need to remember is who we turn to when we are knocked down physically and spiritually.  Sometimes tragic accidents happen, but through all the tragedy God can be seen as the One who repairs and protects us.  God performed some amazing work this week on a young man, and through all the tragedy and pain, I know we can turn to Him and take refuge in Him.  Think about those times when you need protection from tragedy and pain, and look to our Lord who will surely bless the righteous as the scripture states.  Use the shield provided and rely on His protection.


Have a great weekend.
