Watch over me, protect me from even those dangers or potential clumsy acts that endanger my walk. When in doubt remember what security is all about. In days of trial, duress, false happiness and extended hope, we are forced to define and repeatedly analyze our concept of safety on this Planet, in this nation, in my state, city, country and my current seat. What brings safety to all men that does not require this continual reflection or sponsor the whispering doubt to fray at the hem of tapestry? What makes you feel safe, A shepherd a guardian a gun? Do these allow for quiet slumber for contemplation free from the challenges of fear and self-loathing, do they give you rest in the middle of a torrid experience?
I am alone, no matter what I may prop myself up into believing, when a foreign enemy or criminal with horrific intent looks directly at me to cause harm, it is unavoidable. What then offers a sense of protection in this caustic world, prone to self indulgent rage and consumption? Are there places that have a rating that make them acceptable to those who would sleep soundly or raise their children without the customary constant concern for their safety and well being? What school provides protection for the innocent or old folks home has given people serenity regarding the health of senior family? Even now we see that Police themselves are in need of our protection from the influences that would personally harm them or take their funding leaving them incapable of standing between the innocent and the approaching hoard. What then offers relief, can you describe the path to your solemnity and serenity, perhaps mystic meditation upon the inevitability of welcome in to the universe for all things good and unholy?
My objective is love and understanding, offering a different path than the world which would leave you breathless. Perhaps a moment of awe at the miraculous would bring you closer to center, allowing your humanity to prosper? I do not counsel all people to conform to a truth that fits all sizes and offers peace to all who wish to inject their path into the harmony to which I refer. The only path to absolute comfort and a peace that confounds the fear, tyranny and troubles of this world is through having a shepherd outside of time, with the capacity to arm you, protect and direct you away from each trouble, knowing them before they occur. Jesus Christ is not some tyrannical commander who demands your loyalty in exchange for a strong arm group of thugs for protection.
Jesus is the Son of God, the Word in the Trinity, who was there before the beginning and will shine way beyond the end if we can comprehend what they even portends. He knows all things because there is nothing that has been or will be created that was not made expressly for Him, Through Him and By Him. He is the only path to a absolute, subjective and objective security in this world and the next. He is the only being in this Universe who created you and knew you before you were a thing inside your Mother’s Womb or a gleam in Your Father’s eye. He sees your future, knows your past and will surround you with an impermeable troop of protection that can see dangers before they come and stop them from following your escape. There is no other to offer prayer in the throne room of heaven but through the Good Shepherd, No other path to a quiet calm and peace upon Earth and an understanding of safety that surpasses the world’s comprehension and explanation.
If you want to sleep soundly, live without fear and know that you are protected from all things even the payment of death and separation from God for eternity the only place to find that wonderous gift is in relationship with the Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ watching over the flock even from those things that are “undetectable”, all will brought into the glorious light of God. Find Peace, Find hope, lose the grip of doubt and fear in this life and be assured of participation in the Next. Find Jesus Christ tonight. Let me know if I may help at all in your venture. In the Powerful Name of Jesus, Be at Peace.
