Guarding our lives

Psalm 86:2 is David’s plea for God to “Guard my life for I am devoted to you.”  Today in my quiet time I thought about how many times I’ve read this verse, and yes, I appreciate its message.  But the Lord spoke to me and said “I not only protect your lives, but I also watch over and guard My plan for your lives. If it were for this life only that you live, it would be important for Me to keep you safe from harm.  But it is for My Kingdom that you are called and the life you live is not yours alone, but the Ruler’s Whom you serve.  And that same Ruler guards His plan for your lives to bring each part into reality, and will preserve your life until its accomplishment.”


Since it is God Himself Who will bring His plan into perfection in us, let us trust Him with all things.  Amen.
