And a man shall be as an hiding place from the wind, and a covert from the tempest; as rivers of water in a dry place, as the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. Isa 32:2
In our own lives, we recently celebrated our first wedding anniversary. Friends and family have sent us well wishes and thoughtful comments.
These events reminded me of this verse, Isa 32:2 and how one man can be a cover from the storm, as refreshing as cold clean water in the desert, as peaceful and secure as the shadow of a huge rock in a wasteland, as quiet as a secure place away from the winds of life.
Now I have it pretty good in that department. My husband is perfect for me. I could not ask God for a better soul-mate. I truly pray all could experience such a perfect match made in heaven like what Don and I now share.
But above that, I know that the One Man Who seeks to be Our Covering is the Man, Christ Jesus. He is the One who desires to shelter us from every storm and tempest. His blood is our covering. He is Our ROCK. He gives us Living Water that we may never thirst and the rivers of living water flow from our belly to sustain others. He is Our Hope, Our Peace, Our Provider, Our GOD.
And we, like the Sweet Psalmist in Israel can say,
I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. Psa 61:4
Because God has promised us:
He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: Psa 91:4(p)
We've used this video before; but it seemed fitting again so...
