I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go.Genesis 28:15
Dear U,
A famous Christian author writes:
"One day I found myself on a plane sitting beside a mentally 14 year-old boy. 'Hello, I'm Billy Jack, I'm going home to see my daddy.' I started to tell him my name, but he spoke first. 'I need someone to look after me, I get confused a lot.' He told me about the special school he attended and the medication he took. 'Can you remind me to take my pill in a few minutes?' Before we buckled up, he stopped the airline attendant, 'Don't forget about me,' he told her, 'I get confused.' I can't think of one time Billy Jack didn't remind her that he needed attention. The rest of us didn't need it; we were sophisticated, self-reliant, seasoned-travellers. We didn't even listen to the emergency landing instructions. Billy Jack asked me to explain them to him."
"A book to challenge the self-sufficient, The Bible, was written for folks like us. Confession of need is an admission of weakness, something we're all slow to do. Not Billy Jack - he understood grace, and he was the safest person on the flight.Had the plane encountered trouble he'd have received immediate assistance. The attendants would have by-passed me and gone to him. Why? Because he had placed himself in the care of someone stronger. Have you?"
"One last thought - just when I thought Billy Jack was asleep, his head popped up and he said, 'My dad's going to meet me at the airport; I can't wait to see him, because he watches over me.'"
Be encouraged: God watches over you! God bless
