Daily Scripture Passage: Psalms 121, 122, 123
The Lord shall watch over your going out and your coming in, from this time forth for evermore. — Psalm 121:8
We live in a life of chaos. In the chaos, my feet and eyes lose where to go. What is right and what is wrong? What is true justice and peace? And which path should I follow?
And then we look at the hills. We look at the hills seeking the path, but cannot find the answer of where to look, and then find ourselves lost.
We focus our efforts on what we think is best at every moment of our lives, yet we find out later that it was my first choice and different from God's greater will, and we look for another choice and a place to rely on, but sooner or later, we will realize that it was just another choice made by myself. That is how we look at the hills.
But in the end, my gaze and my life will remain on the One who truly protects me.
Wherever we go, God will watch everything as we come and go. And He will always protect and guide us to follow the right path.
I trust in His guidance and entrust my life to the Lord.
May the Son of God, Lord Jesus Christ, be with us, consider our struggles, and guide us with His hands.
