The Keeper of Our Soul.

Psalms 121:5 - 8 (NASB) 5 The LORD is your keeper; The LORD is your shade on your right hand. 6 The sun will not smite you by day, Nor the moon by night. 7 The LORD will protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. 8 The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in From this time forth and forever.

Through the darkest of times we don't fully comprehend how much God is keeping and sustaining us. It is usually only when we begin to come out from under the cloud that we can look back and see how He was there at every trial, every adversity and every turn; Guiding us, leading us, caring for us and working something so wonderful within us. This speak so much of the goodness of God!!!

During these times we don't feel the promise of this Psalm. However, that is why we need faith. That regardless of how we are feeling, overwhelmed and defeated, God is still doing a work because He is the one who promised to do it. He is Faithfull!!! Even in our faithless times, He is still found faithfull. He is such a loving and compassionate God. His beauty is seen so much clearer when we emerge from the darkness that hid our steps. We have a joy in our heart; a peace in our soul; and a fire within our spirit. God brings about His will, in His time, and in His way. All we have to do is continue surrendering ourselves to Him and allowing the Holy Spirit to do His work.

Lord, I am gratefull for the brilliance of the light and seeing what you are doing, but I am also grateful for the dark times when I didn't see what you were working. But, you did even more within me during that time than any other. Thank you and have your way! Amen.
