The Protection of God

Recently, it has been quite cold. I always have to go outside with at least one jacket, if not two, to just keep warm and protected from the cold winds coming at me. The jacket-so to speak-is like God's protection. Even in the cold howling winds, God keeps His arms around us, protecting us from the harsh torment of the devil. Even though there are the howling winds of trials coming at us, God keeps His hand steady to make sure we are safe. When we go outside without socks or a jacket, we definitely feel the cold air. I went out into our garage yesterday without any socks on, and the cement was so cold, it made my feet hurt. Just like when we go into life without the protection of God, we are crushed by the devil who delights that we are not trusting God. But why shouldn't we trust God? He wants the best for us. And is always there for us, even if we are not trusting Him. Maybe we should stop worrying about the unknown future because our protection is seconds away from an all-knowing God. All we have to do is ask Him to help us, and believe me, He will.
So lately, have you been stepping outside of your house without protection?
Please have a cup of tea with me today.
