Perfect Protected Peace


Great Pyrenees by Dee Kamp
 
 
Perfect Protected Peace

I drove more slowly than usual on the two lane highway that leads past the Spring Hill farm. It’s was warm a spring day and the fields of the little sheep farm in a beautiful valley with deep velvet green pastures and pools of cool still waters.

The sheep roam in this state of assurance for they have watching over them a beautiful and powerful caretaker, a Great Pyrenees sheep dog. The ever watchful dog is ever watchful for danger to the sheep and never takes his eyes off of the sheep both day and night. They are in in a place of perfect protected peace.

I look up to the mountains-

does my help come from there?

My help comes from the LORD,

who made heaven and earth!

He will not let you stumble;

 The one who watches over you will not slumber,

Indeed, he who watches over Israel never slumbers or sleeps.

(Psalm 121:1-4 NLT)

 

We have this assurance God is ever faithful and He promises to be with us day and night, for He neither slumbers nor sleeps. We too can enjoy this perfect protected peace. Nothing ever diverts, nor is able to distract God, our Great Shepherd, from watching over His beloved sheep.   

“Just when I need Him, Jesus is near,

Just when I falter, just when I fear;

Ready to help me, ready to cheer,”

Just when I need Him most.—William C. Poole, Beneath His Wings
