Today is Tuesday, December 26th, 2023; Karen's Korner #5027

(I will be away from my computer for a few days. Next Karen's Korner - Wednesday, January 3, 2024!)

"The Lord is my fort where I can enter and be safe; no one can follow me in and slay me.  He is a rugged mountain where I hide, he is my Savior, a rock where none can reach me, and a tower of safety. He is my shield. He is like the strong horn of a mighty fighting bull. All I need to do is cry to him---oh, praise the Lord---and I am saved from all my enemies!"

~ Psalm 18:2 & 3 LAB

Bible Commentary:   "God's protection of his people is limitless and can take many forms. David characterized God's care with six military symbols. God is like 1) a fort or place of safety where the enemy can't follow; 2) a rugged mountain full of hiding places; 3) a rock that can't be penetrated by any who would harm us 4) a tower high above our enemies; 5) a shield that comes between us and harm; and 6) a horn to scare the enemy away or to warn us if he comes too close. If we need protection, we can look to God/"
