Who Has Your Back?

For you, God, tested us;
   you refined us like silver.
 You brought us into prison
   and laid burdens on our backs.
 You let people ride over our heads;
   we went through fire and water,
   but you brought us to a place of abundance.

Psalm 66:10-12

The only word I have to describe this verse is....WOW!!! Such an eye opening verse that explains our lives as sinners completely. The God of the world created us to be followers of him in the beginning and where we went from there is another story. Some decided to follow Him and others decided to go out on their own and experience the world. With each step that was taken we are each struck with things that worry us, things that are falling apart, lives that are lost and a feeling of being all alone. We all have burdens struggles in this life on earth but how we handle those struggles is another story. Each and EVERY person has a savior, a father whose desire is to take them and put His arms around them and hug them. A man that is with them through everything. Whether you choose to follow Him is totally up to you.

I am so glad that I have made the decision to follow Him and allow Him to be the protector of my life. Will things always be easy? NO! Will my life be perfect? NO! By putting my trust in Him, a weight has been lifted off my back. Even though things may get hard and I may not understand the reasoning behind everything, I know that someone has my back.  Does someone TRULY have your back?
