Finding joy in the shadow of God's wings
“Hide me in the shadow of your wings.” - Psalm 17:8 Being hidden under the shadow of God’s wings is an image that helps us understand that God protects us in the midst of trouble. One thing about this image I have never thought about before is what’s happening under God’s wings. In the shadow of God’s wings, we can relax.
