Spiritual Thought: Everything about the kilt was important as a covering: It protected the wearer from harmful weather; it kept the wearer warm; it served as a bed; it was adaptable for all circumstances. Those characteristics also could be used to describe both God’s grace and His faithful protection. Reflect on the following verses and discuss what it means for God to cover us.
6a
Psalm 91:4
6b
Psalm 3:3-5
6c
Ezekiel 16:8
6d
Habakkuk 2:14
