You know when I browse through all my stuff that I have amassed eight years after leaving home, I realise that there is an awful lot of things that I have collected on the way. I was rummaging through my gear and found old clothes, photos of my 1st of 26 trips to Paris (I keep Eurostar in business) and all sorts of things that people have given to me.
 
In a small sort of way, these are my little treasures. Something that I have chosen to value - even if no one else values them, I do because when I see that photo/brochure/clothes, it speaks of so much. Jesus keeps us - we may not be of much value to anyone but he values us simply because of who we are. He will never discard us, he will treasure us - he will protect us. It says in the word that "He will keep my feet from falling" - Hallelujah! Jesus keeps me and looks after me and thinks that you and I are the most amazing treasures he has in the world.
 
I am to Jesus what those precious sentimental items are to me. When I think of the goodness of God in my life, when I think of the way that he keeps and satisfies the longing for reality in my soul - I can rest that he is the keeper of my soul, that there is nothing that the keeper of my soul and I cannot face and I would not wish it to be anyone else. I'd rather have Jesus than houses or land, I'd rather be led by the nail-pierced hand!
 
Today, rest in the fact that your life is hid with Christ IN God and that nothing can take you out of His keeping power.
