Shielded and Protected

It's going to be a very still week. As long as I stay put and don't move around too much, I can keep the pain under control. And that's my goal. I'm so glad to have my sister here with me this week so she can help out in so many different ways. Today she baked some delicious cookies. Come on over for tea and you can taste them.
My sister shared a beautiful Bible verse with me and I want to pass it on. Deuteronomy 33:12 says "Let the beloved of the Lord rest secure in Him, for He shields him all day long, and the one the Lord loves rests between His shoulders." Isn't that just so comforting? I love that verse - the image of God wrapping His shoulders around me to protect me and shield me as I walk along step by step.

God is my shield,
Sandra

  1. Hi Sandra,
    It was good to see you today. When you mentioned the verse from your blog, I was trying to remember what it was exactly. I realize now that I was thinking about the previous blog where you talked about the devotional on worry. I thought you must have mentioned a verse and I just missed it. At any rate, yes, this is a beautiful verse. I think I will use it in connection with singing the Lorica to open the staff meeting tomorrow morning. So you will be part of the staff meeting. Thanks for sharing. Unfortunately I am busy again tonight, but hope to come visit in the next day or two.
