Protection

October 28protection,awning,breaux bridge,old building

I am thankful for protection. Many things protect us in life, including family and friends that try to protect you from hardships. Windows allow for light to come through but protect somewhat against the elements. Locks on our doors offer protection from intruders. The police and fire departments protect us from crime and fire, respectively. And medical professionals help to protect our health. I hope you feel and receive ultimate protection or comfort from God. "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me." (Psalm 23)

This photo was another that I took in Breaux Bridge. It is an old building across the street from the Bayou Teche Visitor's Center. I love this old tattered building but my focus from this picture is the awning. Awnings protect buildings from the heat and glaring light from the sun if over windows or doors and also protects us from rain. Therefore, I chose to use this awning photo to represent protection.

Father protect me

from the ravages of the bad storm

shelter me like an awning

and not let me to evil conform

keep the waters of temptation

far away from my door

and shade me from blistering heat

a clean heart to restore.
