HIS PROTECTION

"Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about."

Psalms 17:8, 9
King James Version

Rev. William O. Cushing wrote one of my favorite hymns "UNDER HIS WINGS". I love the words in this inspiring hymn.

"Under His wings I am safely abiding, Though the night deepens and tempests are wild, Still I can trust Him; I know He will keep me, He has redeemed me, and I am His child.

Under His wings, under His wings, Who from His love can sever? Under His wings my soul shall abide, Safely abide forever.

Under His wings, what a refuge in sorrow! How the heart yearningly turns to His rest! Often when earth has no balm for my healing, There I find comfort, and there I am blessed.

Under His wings, oh, what precious enjoyment! There will I hide till life’s trials are o’er; Sheltered, protected, no evil can harm me, Resting in Jesus, I’m safe evermore."

Thank You, precious Jesus, for the assurance I have that You love me unconditionally and that You will never leave me. Even when I do or say something that huits You, I never have to worry about You not loving me. Thank You.

You have told me to be on the watch for satan because he wants to keep us from serving You so we need You to pick us up in Your loving arms and carry us until the pain goes away.

Heavenly Father, I bring my beloved sister to You. Please touch her, comfort her, encourage her and heal her. Let her know how much You love her and how thankful You are to her for encouraging me to write devotions about the Love of Jesus.  In Jesus' Name, I pray.  Amen.
