"Keep me as the apple of the eye…hide me under the shadow of Thy wings.” Psalm 17:8 KJV.
Charles Wesley was walking through the woods on a stormy day when a lightening storm broke out and the rain began to come down in buckets.A bolt of lightening flashed, and a little bird was so frightened that it flew down to Wesley and it tried to hide in his coat.
He was so moved by the scene that he wrote a song we used to often sing:
“Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to Thy bosom fly, while the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high. Hide me, O my Savior,hide, ‘til the storm of life is past; safe unto the haven guide me, O receive my soul at last.”
That’s what our Lord does. He hides us, sustains us, and keeps us.
Jesus, lover of my soul, keep me protected for your blessing. Whatever good happens to us is such a pleasure for God, that we can't even imagine how good it makes him feel. Naturally, we always think in our own self centered thinking, but for him, he basks in the joy of knowing we are safe in him.
Are the storms of life raging around you? Hide yourself in the dark clouds—they are just the shadow of His wing. As the mother eagle covers her eaglets, God covers us. What a secure feeling!
HOW GREAT TO BE THE APPLE OF GOD'S EYE.
