Scripture: Psalm 12:7
You, O Lord, will protect us; you will guard us from this generation forever.
Thought for the Day: The world will throw a lot at us. We will make many mistakes, and some of them will bring about trouble. Suffering will happen no matter how careful we might be. A lot of bad stuff will occur in life, but it is good to know that God will protect and guard us. Of course, that doesn’t mean we are going to be protected from all the stuff the world will throw at us. It doesn’t mean we will be guarded from the repercussions of our mistakes. It doesn’t mean suffering won’t befall us. It does mean God will protect and guard the essence of who we are so that no difficulty we face will have the ultimate victory. Spiritual Disciplines help us to more fully connect with this God, building trust in the belief that God will give us the ultimate victory despite all the bad we might experience.
Prayer: Creator God, in this life many things will transpire, yet I know you stand with me in this life and in the life to come. Amen.
