He will not let your foot slip — he who watches over you will not slumber… —Psalm 121:3.
When our children were little, we would sneak in and watch them sleep. Sometimes, it was to check on them when they were sick. Sometimes, it was to sit and pray for them, joining the Lord as he watched over them while they slept. It was in the grace and wonder of God’s love for such blessings. Even now that they are much older, we still love to be around them and pray for them when we visit them in their homes. we still marvel at the wonder of these precious gifts from the Father to us. To know that our Abba Father in heaven looks at us in the same adoring way, that he will not let our foot slip, and will not slumber as he watches over us with delight and joy, ah, that fills me with unspeakable wonder. Our Abba will not let our feet slip! Our Abba will not slumber.
