Here's one inspiring story:
A father told the story of his son's first serious conflict at school.
His boy was being picked on by three bullies. They would punch him, push his bike over, and generally made his life miserable.
They told him that they'd meet him the next morning before school and beat him up.
That evening the dad really worked hard to show his son some moves on how to defend himself, passed on a few helpful techniques, and even gave him some tips on how he might win them over as friends.
The next morning, the boy choked back the tears knowing that the inevitable was going to happen. With a reassuring hug, the father smiled confidently and said, "you can do it, son. I know you'll make out all right."
The boy got on his bike and began the lonely, long ride to school.
What the boy didn't know was that every block he rode was under the watchful eye of his dad...who drove his car a safe distance behind, out of sight but ever ready to speed up and assist if the scene became too threatening.
The boy thought he was alone, but he wasn't alone at all. The father was there all the time.
End of story.
It's so reassuring to know that our heavenly Father is always watching us and He knows what's going through in our lives.
But the busyness in this world is trying to take our attention away from God.
That's why we CONSTANTLY need to read, memorize, and meditate His Words.
So take some time now to stop and memorize His Words.
