I am going to start something new called the "Verse of the Week" where i will post a verse every week and reflect on what i think it means and you can do the same by commenting and adding to my reflection using yours. I would also like it if you commented whether you thought this was a good idea right below this post.
This weekly verse:
"I look up to the hills, but where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
He will not let you be defeated. He who guards you never sleeps.
He who guards Isreal never rests or sleeps.
The Lord guards you. The Lord is the shade that protects you from the sun.
The sun cannot hurt you during the day, and the moon cannot hurt you at night.
The Lord will protect you from all dangers; he will guard your life.
The Lord will guard you as you come and go, both now and forever."
Psalms 121
I love this passage, it comforts me in times when i am scared or lost. This verse tells you that God is always there for you, even when you had lost all hope, even when you have nowhere to go. It also tells me that whenever i need an answer to anything i can always ask God and he will provide the perfect answer for me. He is also like our personal invincible bodyguard too, as it stated "He will not let you be defeated" "The Lord is the shade that protects you from the sun" "The Lord will protect you from all dangers". Isn't that just amazing and comforting? We can always rely on God.

I agree, this is such an encouraging passage. Thanks for reminding me of this! I love how it says that God never sleeps, but is always watching us, day and night. He won't even allow the sun or moon to harm us! Wow!
