Have you ever seen a driver, inside his parked car, with the windows down, taking an afternoon nap? Or even at night, when you are about to enter a fenced area, a security person quickly wakes up from his dozing, just in time to open the gate for you?
Rest assured that our God does not take naps! He who watches over you does not sleep! Our God does not neglect us! He doesn't suddenly wake up to realize he missed something!
Psalm 121 has a beautiful promise: it tells us about God's protection for those who believe. Whether we are facing problems or difficulties, whether we are experiencing severe disappointments or facing life-threatening threats, no matter what the situation, our God, the Creator of heaven and earth has full control over everything, He is constantly watching over us and will protect us now and forever!
If you feel despair and need help, raise your eyes to heaven, look up because your help comes from the Lord! Look above your circumstances, above your disappointment, your illness, your trial, your illness or your need!
Raise your gaze towards God and hope only in Him
Together we pray to the Lord telling him: God of heaven, thank you for how Your word encourages me. I want to trust only in You. Help me overcome everything with Your help. In the name of Jesus... Amen!
With love, Ivano Salerno
