You, Lord God, are my protector. Rescue me and keep me safe from all who chase me. ~ Psalm 7:1 (CEV)
God will bless you when people insult you, mistreat you, and tell all kinds of evil lies about you because of me. ~ Matthew 5:11 (CEV)
You, Lord God, are my protector. And I need protection -- even when I'm trying to do the right things -- even when I'm following your instructions. People misunderstand what I'm doing. They take it personally. Then I get upset. I know that I shouldn't, because I can rely on you. Thank you for being here with me. Thank you for looking out for me. I'm going to relax and not be afraid. Amen.
