“…For the LORD will go ahead of you, and the God of Israel will protect you from behind.” Isaiah 52:12b (NLT)
There are two major factors that shape how we carry out our everyday lives…the past, and the future. Our past history cannot help but shape and influence our attitudes, perceptions, beliefs, reactions, and fears. And, our future will certainly be instrumental in how we plan our steps, and will be based upon our goals, dreams, and hopes.
Whether you realize it or not, God was fully with you during all your yesterdays tirelessly guarding and guiding your path. He was “Protecting you from behind.” He brought good out of the experiences of our yesterdays that shaped our minds and thoughts; and, in doing so, He prepared us for what will happen in our tomorrows.
God goes ahead of us…pointing us in the right direction; and He goes behind us, protecting us. We can certainly rejoice in knowing that as we follow Him,…He is safeguarding our days.
Lord, thank you for being with us in all of our yesterdays and our tomorrows to come. I give praise to You for blessing my life in so many ways. Amen
