Wrapped in Gods Love Psalm 103:14 For he knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we are dust. 2Thess 3:3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil. My husband and I recently moved into a new house. As I have begun to unpack the items that I had so carefully wrapped in bubble wrap, I have rediscovered things I forgot that we owned. I had packed these fragile items long before our former house went up for sale. So for two years, these things had been laying in boxes, untouched. Because the items were wrapped so carefully and cushioned with bubble wrap and tissue paper, they arrived at the new house in one piece. Even though, the boxes were placed in a moving truck and then to a storage unit, and handled by different hands, the items arrived safely to our new home. I thank God that He also carefully wraps us in His love and keeps us in Christ Jesus so that in the hard times of our life, we can know the riches of His mercy and grace. Someday, we will finally arrive at our final destination to be presented to the Heavenly Father. We stand justified in His sight today because of the Lord Jesus; who shed His precious blood for us at Calvary and rose again on the third day. ALL of our sins have been washed away. We will be with the Lord for all eternity. Just like a precious item that was carefully wrapped and sealed within a box, we are in Christ Jesus and we are sealed with the Holy Spirit so that through the rough times of rocking back and forth in this life, we are secure. Someday, the trials of this present life will all be past but for now, we are learning more and more to trust in the Lord. Rom 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. Rom 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. We are in Christ Jesus just like those items were placed safely in a box. Just like those items that were sealed within the box, we too are sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise. We walk in the power of the Holy Spirit. He is our Comforter and teacher. He lives within us. He leads us and guides us into all truth. He always points us to Jesus. The Lord is always here for us, in the good times and the bad. Jesus never promised us an easy road but He did promise that He would never leave us nor forsake us. His promises are true. He will see us through every problem and He is our help in times of trouble. We are going to rule and reign with Christ Jesus forever someday! Psalms 17:8-9 Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about. Psalm 121:3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber. We are daily growing in the Lord. Sometimes, God has to relocate us spiritually, physically, mentally, etc. But He always secures us no matter the distance of the move. Jesus prayed to the Heavenly Father for us in John 17:15, I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. No matter what the circumstance in our lives, the Lord is always on our side. Jesus is our Shepherd and He cares for you and me. It is God alone that makes us secure and wraps us in His love. No matter how difficult the road may be, the Lord will safely see us through. He clothes us with His righteousness. He keeps us in His care at all times. And unlike me, who forgot about some of the delicate things that I had wrapped, the Lord does not forget about us. We are constantly in His care. We are constantly on His mind. He truly cares for us. He knows us all by name. The Lord remembers us always. He watches over us. The Lord leads us to the place where we will be most safe...directly in the center of His will. 1Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you. 2Peter 2:9a The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, Prov 3:26 For the LORD shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken. Psalm 140:4 Keep me, O LORD, from the hands of the wicked; preserve me from the violent man; who have purposed to overthrow my goings. Psalm 41:2 The LORD will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies. Psalms 33:18-22 Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name. Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee. Isaiah 50:7 For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed. 2Tim 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. Phil 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Jude 1:24 Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy,
