If you need protection, look to God

God is a rock that cannot be moved by any who would harm us. God is a fortress or a place of safety where the enemies cannot follow. God is a shield that comes between us and harm. God is a place of safety high above our enemies. I love you, Lord. You are my strength. The Lord is my rock, my protection, my Savior. My God is my rock. I can run to him for safety. He is my shield and my saving strength, my defender. I will call to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I will be saved from my enemies. (Psalm 18: 1 - 3)

Starting this New Year 2013

I cannot be certain about what lays ahead of me in 2013. What I do need to know about the future is not what is ahead of me, but who is ahead of me. It is the Lord who goes before me; He is ahead of me; He is preparing the way. My future is in His sure, strong and caring hands. I will be with you and I will protect you wherever you go. One day I will bring you back safely to this land. I will be with you constantly until I have finished giving you everything I have promised you. (Genesis 28:15) I cannot be certain what the future holds but what I need to know about the future is that I know who is holding me. It is the Lord holding me, He has great plans for me and my future is in His sure, strong and caring hands. For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord. They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. (Jeremiah 29:11)
