Worth Protecting.

1 Peter 1:5
" 5 And God, in His mighty power, will protect you until you receive this salvation, because you are trusting Him. It will be revealed on the last day for all to see."

Psalm 18:16-19
" 16 He reached down from heaven and rescued me; He drew me out of deep waters. 17 He delivered me from my powerful enemies, from those who hated me and were too strong for me. 18 They attacked me at a moment when I was weakest, but the Lord upheld me. 19 He led me to a place of safety; He rescued me because He delights in me."



Psalm 18:16-19 is one of my all time favorite verses. It perfectly describes many times in my life, and how much God finds me worth protecting - even when I don't feel like I am. He was mocked, tortured, and killed because He loved us so much and found us worth protecting. Every day He is watching over us, protecting us from the evils of the world, and the evils that aren't from this world. And even though we suffer and endure many trials, He's still protecting us constantly; I'm reminded of this daily. Seriously, just stop for 60 seconds, ask God to quiet your mind & give you insight, and really think about how He has/is protecting you.

Keep safe from harm or injury: "he protected her from the attack"; "certain vitamins may protect against heart disease". Aim to preserve (a threatened plant or animal species) by legislating against collecting or hunting.

God loves us in a way that's more than we could ever imagine, and with that, He finds us worth protecting more than we can realize.
