Protected

I am safe and protected in the light of God.

Being alone in the dark is a common childhood fear. The active imagination of a child creates monsters hiding in the shadows. When a parent turns on the light, the shadows disappear to reveal the reality—that the creature was merely clothing or furniture.

There may be times in my life when I feel a fear of the unknown or unseen. My imagination may get caught up in the illusions of the world. During those times I need to remember that I am a child of God, protected by spiritual illumination.

I focus on God’s presence in my life, centering myself within, anchoring myself with faith. Doing so I am able to turn my attention from external fear to internal guidance. I am safe and protected in the light of God.

For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.—Psalm 91:11
