“God's Watching Over Me”
I lift up my eyes to the hills — where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip — he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.
Mr. Moya writes:
I know that God will have his eye watching over me all the time. And He’ll help me when I’m going through struggles.

Dear Mr. Moya:
I ricochet your faith from my own meek experiences that “I know that God will have His eye watching over me all the time. And He’ll help me when I’m going through struggles”
This consolation from trust yet humble reliance on Him for His protective care to keep me from sin and unto salvation (Psalm 121:5) frees me from overly concerns with daily cares, and thus have utmost positive energy to be His humble servant.
“Let us therefore draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4: 16)
Thank you.
“May the Lord guard your going out and your coming in
From this time forth and forevermore.” (Psalm 121.8);
GODSPEED, always and forevermore!

Dear Brother Moya,
Thank you for reminding me of a scripture that say’s “THE EYE’S OF THE LORD RUN TO AND FRO AS IN A FLASH OF LIGHTNING BEHOLDING ALL GOOD AND EVIL.”
I thank Jesus every day because I know his angels are watching over me. I believe they guard my bedside as I sleep. “God’s messengers” is what I like to call them! Running to and fro as a flash of lightning reporting to god my needs, and therefore “The Lord is always on time”. He wont let us bear more than we can stand.
The scripture tells us “When we feel weak it’s then we are strong!” So I beieve when we reach our weakest moments in life, that is when Jesus sends us even more angels to minister to our needs, we are “strong” when the presence of the Lord is “near.”
The scripture tells me that my God is so big that the earth could be his foot stool. And then as song goes “He’s Got The Whole World IN His Hands”.
So when I think of it all that way, I can’t help but to think that God dont just look down on us, but rather he’s watching us from every point of view. Thank You and God Bless You!

Dear Moya, What a short but sweet declaration of God’s goodness. This passage is very comforting and a strong foundation to stand upon when we get weary. Just think, our great God is watching us and caring for us like the loving Father He is. Our help, everything we need comes from Him. Thank you for reminding me of His goodness and grace.
Peace and Blessings,
B. Michelle
