Shielded
Dear Friend,
Last week, my son stood in front of me and stated, “I am your shield.” He then began circling me tightly. His sister joined in, and I found myself being orbited by two laughing kids. I finally said, “Enough!” and had to get off the ride. This momma doesn’t do carnival rides as well as she used to. But I left that ride contemplating my son’s words. They echoed what God had spoken to my heart only days before.
Shortly after joining First Love, I came across Psalm 115. What grabbed my attention was the repetition I found in verses 9-11:
“…trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.” NKJV
