Always on Guard


will lift up my eyes to the hills—From whence comes my help?

My help comes from the Lord
Who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber. Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord is your keeper; The Lord is your shade at your right hand. The sun shall not strike you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul. The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in from this time forth, and even forevermore. (Psalm 121)

God is always on guard! He never slacks. He is always watching, caring, providing,  preserving, keeping! Who else can we say does such? Parents will let us down. Children will disappoint. Spouses may forget from time to time. Friends will hurt us. Even our dog will fall sleep on us! But not my God!

He never needs a nap. His eyes do not wander. He doesn't lose focus......unless we decide to turn our backs on Him! Yet even then, He awaits our return with an offer of grace, forgiveness and restoration. (1 John 1:9)

There is no one and no thing like my God! He is always on guard!
