"You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word."
Psalm 119:114 (NKJ)
I think it's cool how God is given analogies like this. Shield, hiding place, rock, tower, strength, salvation. The imagery strengthens one's understanding of God being like these things. As our hiding place, He gives us a place to go to be sheltered from the craziness of the world and just rest in Him. And as our shield, it's like He stands in front of us, putting a protective barrier between us and stones being thrown our way.
Being our hiding place and shield, the Lord is our mighty, invincible Protector. What an awesome thing!
