In life, there is one thing every person wants.
Knowing they are safe.
Scared, alone, fearful, worried, frightened—we’ve all experienced these. Thinking we are not safe is a horrible feeling.
No matter what we are doing, as long as we know we are safe, it’s easy to push through. We all need that security.
And we do always have that security, no matter where we are or what we’re going through.
“I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety.”
Psalm 4:8
God promises as long as we trust in Him, we will always have His protection. He is forever with us, comforting us, caring for us, and protecting us.
“He shall cover thee with His feathers, and under His wings shalt thou trust: His truth shall be thy shield and buckler.”
Psalm 91:4
There is nothing that can break that security we have in His protection. Even as the storms surge around us and it appears like there is no hope, He is still there, keeping us secure under His wing.
“How excellent is Thy lovingkindness, O God! therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Thy wings.”
"Psalm 36:7
We have no reason to fear, for the all powerful, all merciful, loving, and kind Creator of the universe has us safely tucked under His wing.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand…
That song has made me cry before. It's the most beautiful rendition of "In Christ Alone" I've ever heard.
ReplyDeleteExcellent post, my sweet. <3
I kid you not when I say that song gets me teary-eyed almost every single time I listen to it. I agree, it has to be the most beautiful version there is.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you! It's just something that's been on my mind lately so I thought I would post about it.
