Apple of His eye..

 

Someone recently blessed me with the words "you are the apple of God's eye... He is for you" etc...

And it brought tears to my eyes and encouragement to my soul..

But still in the back of my mind I wanted to chalk it up as nice; I was really tempted to think she was just being nice.

Then I came across this...

"Come, O Zion! Escape, you who live in the Daughter of Babylon!" For this is what the LORD Almighty says: "After he has honored me and has sent me against the nations that have plundered you—for whoever touches you touches the apple of his eye- I will surely raise my hand against them so that their slaves will plunder them. Then you will know that the LORD Almighty has sent me. -Zechariah 2:7-9

How encouraging is that??

It's actually scripture.. not just human encouragement, but scripture... all that's left to do is let it sink in!
