"And the peace of God, which surpasses understanding, will guard your minds and hearts in Christ Jesus."
The PEACE of God... "He shall hide you under His wings" - it's being in a safe place. Not so much like a chicken, able to hold so many baby chicks under her flightless feathers... more like an 80lb. Pitbull dog. Her new pups confidently wiggle between her powerful legs and under her powerful head. No one approaches those puppies without her absolute attention. No one touches them without her cautious permission. I saw an eagle in the wild this week - awesome in it's hugeness. It cried out with a call that lingered so long I had to stop and look up to see who had so little fear! Only right above the tall evergreens, it was HUGE, riding the thermal heat, I suppose, just like I've seen on TV. I watched until it was so high I doubted that it was such a big bird. Hiding, riding, under those wings is an awesome idea... soaring high above the worries and concerns of the world, confident master without fear.
God is more awesome than an eagle, scarier than a pitbull dog. No one can touch His children without His seeing, knowing, allowing. And His children have no need to worry, for He carries them far above "all that". LORD, open my eyes to see... my emotions want to feel, to know Your refuge. But even if I can't perceive it, THANK YOU, LORD!!!
