SUNDAY CHOICE – GOD WATCHES OVER YOU – by Charles Schokman
Psalm 121:5-8 NIV
5 The Lord watches over you—the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
6 the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all harm— he will watch over your life;
8 the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.
How many times has God protected you that you didn’t even know about? He stopped that car that should have hit you, stopped the person that wanted to harm you, stopped the trouble before it got to you. You never knew anything about it, but His hand of favour, protection, and mercy was watching after you, keeping you from harm’s way. Sure, we can all find reasons to live afraid, worried, uptight. But when you understand Who’s watching after you, Who’s ordering your steps, Who’s fighting your battles, Who’s holding back the darkness, then you can say with confidence, “I will not fear.”
Jesus said “And lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” (Matthew 28:20)
Pray that this hymn gives us the assurance that God is watching over you and me at the bad & good times and also at the sad & happy times—Join in the singing.
You are welcome to pass this on.
