One of the definitions of the word watch is: “to guard, to tend, or oversee, especially for protection or safekeeping”. This chubby tabby cat watched me cautiously on my recent early morning venture while searching for interesting photos. As his keen eyes followed me, I was reminded of Scripture which speak of the watchful eyes of my Loving Father ~ “I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go (Genesis 28:15). I will advise you and watch over you (Psalm 32:8). I will watch over your life (Psalm 121:7). I will hold you by your hand and watch over you (Isaiah 42:6). Tabby didn’t seem to feel safe being watched because as I slowly approached, he slowly disappeared into the nearby bushes. I still thought tabby and his photo deserved spotlight, and a great example of my Loving Fathers’ watchful Eye!
Heavenly Father, For Your keen eyes that watch over, keep me safe, and follow me wherever I go, I am truly grateful. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Photo: Tabby Cat Taken at: Virginia Zoo, Norfolk, Va.

Loving Father,
If I am offended by anyone today, help me not to be tempted to become angry. Let my words, my thoughts, my response, be kind, patient, and loving. Help me to think, and respond from Words that You have spoken to my heart from the Holy Scriptures, In Jesus' name, amen. A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. - Proverbs 15:1 Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger rests in the bosom of fools. - Ecclesiastes 7:9. You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry. - James 1:19 Photo: King's Ransom Rose Taken at: Norfolk Botanical Garden
He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters.-
Psalm 23:2.
