Yes, I have read the BBT book but I want to reread it! I learn so much from her.

After moving into a new apartment by myself, I did my rounds to make sure my doors and windows were locked before going to bed. I had the habit of checking repeatedly in my other apartments to be sure, but this time, just as I was getting ready to bring that old habit to my new apartment, God stopped me in my tracks. He told me that He is the One who keeps me safe, not my doors and locks. Not verbally, but on the inside. It may as well have been verbally because such a feeling of confident security and safety came over me. Ever since then, while I still take the time to lock up and take precautions while out and about, I always remember that assurance that I am safe because I am with God and He is with me. Thank you for reminding me of that. ???

I benefit from this reminder: “Trusting the one I’m walking with is where my safety lies.” Where we are isn’t as important as who we’re with.

I think it’s my favorite of her books. I have started carrying a small flashlight in my purse, coat pockets,etc., because it’s so dark out here on the edge of the universe. It’s a metaphor to me for keeping really close to whatever light I am receiving from the Word. So easy to stumble!

Your definition of Safe is so good – because we think safe means safe in the world – but to live understanding it means safe in God – kind of changes our expectations – and understand better where we need to put our trust – whether it’s in the light or dark moments of our lives. ~ Shalom, Maryleigh

This comforts me, “Even darkness is not dark to You, and the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to You.” (Psalm 139:12 NASB)
