GOD'S PROMISES - PROTECTION

God covers us with His protection even when we don't realize that we need it.

Your friend's significant other calls and asks you for a ride. Being the good friend that you are, you give the person a ride thinking you are helping your friend. 

What you don't know is the significant other is using you to take them to do some illegal activities. You don't find this out until days afterward and you swear you will never do this again because had you known the full story you would not have given the ride to your friend's significant other.

God helped you to make it there and back safely. He also allowed the truth to come out so that you will never allow yourself to be put in that situation again. 

God, in His mercy, protected you when you didn't even know you needed His protection.

Our God is truly an awesome God!

GOD'S PROMISES - UNRECOGNIZED BLESSINGS

God is performing blessings in your life everyday big and small. Sometimes we don't even recognize the blessings that God performs in our lives.

You left the house at the right time to avoid that accident on the road. You put a vacation request in that will occur in the next couple of months. When the time of your vacation comes, being off that week will allow you to avoid an unpleasant situation that you would have had to deal with had you been working that week.
