God is our ultimate protector. In Psalm 17:8 David says, Keep me the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings. I always though the term “apple of my eye” was very strange when describing someone dear to us. But the apples (pupils) of our eyes are something we all protect vigorously. The same goes for us with God. We are the apple of His eye and he will protect us just as vigorously.
