------------------------
The lovely new digital word art file uses the scripture Psalm 91:11 which says, "For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways." This is such a beautiful verse, and it gives us such a warm feeling to entertain the idea that the Lord has angels watching over us. This verse, as well as many other verses that talk about angels, have long been discussed and debated. Whether or not each of us truly has their own "guardian angel" watching over us isn't really the issue here. What God does want us to learn from this verse (and other verses about His watchcare over us) is that once we are a child of God, we gain His favor. He will protect us, watch over us, guard us from harm, and direct our path. Perhaps He uses angels to help guide us, but...make no mistake that it is by the power of God alone that we are protected. Not only are we protected by Him in this life, but we are also promised an eternal protection. This eternal protection is in a place free from sin, free from fear, and free from the darkness of this evil world. Praise God that "He shall give his angels charge over us" to keep and protect us always. What a wonderful God we serve...that He would offer His protection over us always. In this world, and in the next. That's what I call true protection and love, and I'm so grateful that He died for me so that I can know that amazing promise.
As always, you are welcome to save the free scripture/word art file to your computer, but are never required to use it in order to play along in our challenges. We welcome you share your all your art with us; remembering that Anything Goes as long as it's family-friendly, and uses an encouraging or uplifting sentiment. This includes any type of altered or digital art (not just limited to cards). You may link up to five (5) projects each week, for a total of ten (10) entries per two-week challenge. The more you enter, the more you increase your odds of winning. It is our desire that God's Word will be a blessing and encouragement to you as we share it. If you have any questions about the rules, be sure to read the complete list of rules under our page tab for "Challenge Rules". Because our ultimate goal is to honor God, we have no other choice but to delete any entries that do not adhere to the guidelines. Please know that this doesn't mean we are judging anyone. We're simply attempting to honor God and follow His rules. Let us know if you have any questions, and thanks for your understanding and participation!
