April 4 - My Shield

 

“But you are a shield around me, O Lord;

you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.”

(Psalm 3:3 NIV)

 

A friend reminded me, “Yahweh lifts His face toward you. That is attention. He carries you through what you cannot walk through alone. That is strength. He bears the weight of what should have crushed you. That is sacrifice. And He forgives by removing what He bore. That is freedom. That is Nasa (נָשָׂא) Pronounced: nah-SAH.” I will lift up my face to my heavenly Father and praise Him. I hope you will, too!
