“The LORD is my light and my salvation— so why should I be afraid? The LORD is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble?”Psalms 27:1 NLT
When God says He will protect. He will. Yes that’s true. One thing that God cannot do is to lie.
You see God is committed to His words and whatever we read in the bible so God will do and He will established it for you and I.

We are made. Not just made into His image and likeness but we are made with a mark that whatever we do we are victorious.
God wants us to life of no fear…

I have heard an interesting and challenging word over the past few months. It has been used as a descriptive word of someone’s character or personality.

He sought them out in the cool of the day for an intimate walk in the garden.
Discipline is often confused with punishment. Punishment’s goal is to ‘make you pay’ for your crime. Discipline guides you to restoration. Disciple is done in love; punishment in anger. Discipline requires relationship; punishment does not.
This verse could be very concerning to some. Few of us really want our deepest desires or thoughts exposed. Exposing them to someone intent on harming us physically or emotionally would keep us away. But exposing them to a loving Father intent on making us better is refreshing to say the least.
