God, behind us, in front of us, and all around us

Psalm 139:5

“You have enclosed me behind and before.”

Let me just say, when you’re using a knee scooter, crutches, and a walker to navigate, you do not feel too secure.

And then if you add a big, heavy boot to one leg, you feel even less secure.

I have to be honest. Do you know I’ve forgotten to do?

I’ve completely forgotten to pray for my safety when I’m up and trying to maneuver. I’m counting on the fact that others have prayed for that.

I hope this verse reminds you today that God is behind us, in front of us, and all around us. We are enveloped in a “cloud of his love”, at all times.

We can even imagine his strong arms holding us close. That’s a good feeling, huh?

I pray that whatever is happening in your life, you are aware of God’s presence surrounding you.

Let God keep you safe as you
“scoot” through your day.

God bless and I hope you have a good one.

Rebecca
