Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.  This I declare of the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I am trusting him.  For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from the fatal plague.  He will shield you with his wings. He will shelter you with his feathers.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection.  Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor fear the dangers of the day,  nor dread the plague that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday.  Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you,
these evils will not touch you.

                                         Psalms 91:1-7 (NLT)

We just watched March of the Penguins last night.  As I read this, one of my favorite verses to the Lord tonight, I could picture Him, not as a rooster safe in the farmyard, hiding the baby chick from some unknown, unseen danger, but as the Emporer Penguin, defending his unhatched egg from its very environment.  I know for myself, the Lord has only allowed me to be exposed to the elements of the world and of sin as I was mature enough to handle them.  The penguin daddies suffer almost four months or more of starvation to care fo their babies.  They literally are dying to protect thier offspring.  So my Lord died for me.  Many penguins do not make it.  They fall to the harsh climate, or predators.  But I am safe in my father's protective covering.  And He feeds me from Himself, just like the daddy penguins do. 

Isn't it amazing how all creation preaches the Gospel?
