I call on you, my God, for you will answer me; turn your ear to me and hear my prayer.Show me the wonders of your great love, you who save by your right hand those who take refuge in you from their foes. Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings… Psalm 17:6-8 (NIV) It is comforting to know that when we call on God He is faithful to answer. When we reach out to Him, He reaches back to us. When we seek His face, His presence surrounds us. When we welcome Him into every area of our life, He dwells in our midst. His great love is ever-present and His grace continuously flows. God cares more for us than we could ever imagine. His affection towards us expands all borders. It goes beyond the deepest ocean, far beyond the clouds in the sky and expands wider than the universe. Bask in the infinite love of God that penetrates our soul and meets us in every area of need and desire. Rest in the compassionate care of our Savior and receive His protection and provision. He will cover, sustain and defend us.

Prayer: God, we thank you for answering our cries of distress in our darkest hours. We praise you for being the good shepherd that loving guides, directs and protects us. As we hide in the shadow of your wings, we trust that you will deliver us from all that seeks to bring us down or hold us back. We are the apple of your eye and we declare our love for you today. We love you. We adore you. We appreciate you and we surrender all to you. In Jesus mighty name, amen. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
