Today is Friday, June 20th, 2008; Karen's Korner #1340

I used to get a number of unwanted and unnecessary emails every day.
 
But I don't any more!
 
The computer company which provides my email service installed a 'SPAM lab'. I get one mail from them every day which gives me the opportunity to look through the list to see if I would like to retrieve any of them. Doesn't seem like there is ever anything in the list that I need or want. The number runs between 55 and 75!
 
I didn't install it; they simply provide the service. And I appreciate it!
 
Sort of like our relationship with Jesus. There are lots of things out there that are hurled our way each day. Some of them land in our lap, but I wonder if many or most things never come into our lives. Most of the stuff we don't want and can't use are held at bay. Jesus protects us!
 
We are protected because we ask for His protection. We are cared for because He is the Great Shepherd. We are loved because He chooses to love us. I don't know how and I don't why.
 
All I can say is, "Thank You!"
 
Dear Father in Heaven, forgive me when I whine about some current circumstance, when all you ever do is protect me and care for me. I praise You for that kind of love and protection. You always have my best interest at heart and I can walk in confidence and victory, knowing that You are close beside me, guarding and guiding my every step. Today is the day; let's walk on together! In Jesus Name, Amen.
