WATCHING OVER US!

Ever wondered what its like for God to watch over us?  Does He sit in a large - huge- mega big- chaise lounge observing?  Or does He have His hands on His hips, standing high in the clouds, shaking his finger at us? 

I would prefer to believe that like this mother duck, He is sitting quietly,  observing, waiting. . .!
The sitting quiet wouldn't work for me, and the waiting either.  Mother ducks are always watchful and if there is danger, she is first to immediately move into shelter and they follow her.  You can't find her and her eight babies any other time.  They are hidden and protected at all times.  Even then she lost three out of the original group.  How does this relate to us.  Staying with our pack leader would be my best offer.  Every day in Jesus Calling there is a reference to focusing on Him, letting Him guide our day, turning things over to Him, and letting go of things to follow Him.

I could site a whole list of scriptures.  But to some it up I always go back to Deut. 31:8 in the Amplified Version.  If you have a Smart Phone, you can get free apps on that phone and bring up that scripture on all kinds of versions.  County Line has a new app called YouVersion.  Every Sunday now we can tune into that app and see the sermon, comment or ask questions on there about it.  See all the verses written out, and all the music that was sung.  It is amazing today - the spiritual tools we have.

Anyway, that verse says it all, about He goes before us, and He goes with us into whatever is happening.  Fear not because He is NOT going to fail, or abandon us.  Don't be depressed, and unnerved, because He has got it and you.   You have seen lots of different tools on my blog.

Acknowledge Him and only Him
Surrender to Him and only Him
Follow Him and only Him

Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will answer the desires of your heart.  Ps 37: 4
