Each morning in His Word I can feel the realignment of my spirit with His. It is amazing how distracted we can become in 24 hours! <br /><br />Though I agree that others can provide a shield through prayers, etc. I&#39;ve learned to trust God as my shield above all else. Psalm 18:30 &quot;As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the LORD is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.&quot;<br /><br />His Word shields us because it is pure truth. If we trust Him and seek His truth above all else we will be truly protected. Others are still learning as we are therefore susceptible to believing what isn&#39;t true - if we put our trust in them then we can falter too. As you are realigning yourself to God - I pray He is your Rock and Shield above all because then you won&#39;t falter. <br /><br />Rachel<br />Stirring the DeepRachelhttp://www.stirringthedeep.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28171246.post-13668728250194137842009-06-16T02:06:59.128-04:002009-06-16T02:06:59.128-04:00Reminds me of Emery who is forever losing his shield and &quot;sword of &#39;da spirwit&quot;. :)jodihttp://www.jodiyork.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28171246.post-87325032342325642642009-06-15T09:38:16.093-04:002009-06-15T09:38:16.093-04:00Good info--thanks! The pastor who spoke at our church yesterday spoke about the importance of being with others when we experience failures and compared Peter, who immediately went fishing with the disciples after he betrayed Jesus, to Judas, who went off by himself and hung himself.<br /><br />Extreme examples--but sometimes extreme gets my attention!Luannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06990959738094575455noreply@blogger.com
