Guardian of My Soul

“…you were continually straying like sheep, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and

Guardian of your souls.”

1 Peter 2:25

Of the many ways God is described, I love Peter’s description of Him as the Guardian of your souls. What more could any of us want than to have God be the guardian of our souls? When writing about this attribute in Pray with Purpose, Live with Passion, I discovered that the word “guardian” is translated from the Greek word episkopos and means an “overseer, a man charged with the duty of seeing that things done by another are done rightly.” (page 98) I’m glad God is the Guardian of my soul. Aren’t you glad He’s the Guardian of your soul?

LORD, thank You for being the GUARDIAN OF OUR SOULS.
