I'm protected bcos I'm the Apple of His Eye...

Zech. 2:8 For this is what the LORD Almighty says: "After he has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye



I was so drawn to this verse and led me to share this in the women fellowship together with the text in
Matthew 7:9-11
9"Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!

Being a woman, we seem to have this ability call "Worry". We cannot stop worrying. Being a woman here is not easy. Woman can't stop thinking about their children. They will be worrying about what are the children doing? Are they being naughty? Are the teachers treating my child well? Is the househelper looking after the child???

Thousands of thousands of questions and worries ponder in the minds of women.

Moms here can't stay with their children 24hrs but Our Father can! Being adults, we will not be folding our arms and see the children walk into danger... so what more our Father who not only give good gifts but also protector of the apples of His eye.

As i share, I saw one of them started tearing...

I went on to say if we would change our worries to thanks giving wouldn't that acknowledge our Father who will be faithful and the protector of His children? Worrying would actually reflect on our doubts such as " I know better than my Father.... I know how to protect the children better than Father... I know what's best for the children than Father...."

I regret for not stepping in to minister to this sister instead, i handled the time over to the chair person of this fellowship.... something that needed to be taught how to be sensitive to the H.S and flow with Him......

I'm the Apple of His Eye... how about you?
