I sought the LORD, and he answered me,
delivered me from all my fears.
This poor one cried out and the LORD heard,
and from all his distress he saved him.
The angel of the LORD encamps
around those who fear him, and he saves them. (Psalm 34:5,7-8 NABRE)
Those who seek to live as the Lord directs encounter challenges from this world. It is important work, but the Lord protects the one who follows him. We each play a role in bringing God's divine plan, his will, his kingdom, into being. May we trust in his protection as we cry out in our need.
Today, I will praise the Lord in each moment of my day.
Saints Peter and Paul, who encountered the risen Jesus, pray for us.
