… (God) is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for He guards the course of the just and protects the way of His faithful ones.  Proverbs 2:7-8

Today you are invited to consider how God is a shield for you.  What do you think you have to do to be one of the ‘just’ or called a ‘faithful one’?  What role does Jesus play in your life in this regard – remembering that He died for you to put you in good standing with the Father?  What do you want to say to God about Jesus?  What do you want to say to God about God Himself and the part they both play in your life?  Ask God to show you yourself in His eyes.  What difference does this make to the opinion you have of yourself – and to the hope that you have?  How will it change the way forward from here?

May God bless you as you talk to Him today.
