OUR LORD WHO WATCHES OVER US

The LORD is your keeper; The LORD is your shade on your right hand.

 The sun will not smite you by day, Nor the moon by night. The LORD will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul.

The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in From this time forth and forever.

This astonishing passage out of Psalm 121 verse 5 - 8, gives us a picture of the Lord's committed watch over those who look to Him for help. He guards us continually and eternally. 

Our every motion is before Him and at every turn, the Lord protects us and keeps us. 

Whereas we humans sometimes ask Cain's famous question, "Am I my brother's keeper", the Lord our God instead, wholeheartedly gives Himself to the protection and guardianship over those to turn to Him for help.

Psalm 32 verse 8 says this;

I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you.

Part of the Lord's care us is that He teaches us and guides us in the path we should follow and because His eye watches over us, His knowledge of us is exhaustive and His counsel for us is precisely tailored to each of us.

Bless our Lord who watches over us.

Amen.
