“Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.” (Psalm 91:1, NLT)

It’s one of those “go to” verses when we are in need of protection. So familiar and yet I wondered how I had ever missed one simple word. One verse stood out and brought such depth of meaning which I had overlooked before.

In.

The word which stood out was the word, “in”.

Am I staying in His shelter, in His plan, in His will for my life? Are you?

“The mystery and beauty of God coming to us in Jesus is that He is God with us and for us. But He doesn’t come close to us to keep us as we are. He come to us, calls us, and graciously changes us from the inside out. The God who is with us and for us asks us a difficult question: “Are you with Me?”

(By Ruth Schwenk in Settle My Soul, page 108)

This verse is a call for us to “tabernacle” with Him for this is why He came to earth …

“So the Word became human and made his home among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the Father’s one and only Son.” (John 1:14, NLT)

I hope you will join me at Woman to Woman Ministries here for the rest of this post as we look at the question Jesus asks of us: “Are you with me?”
