A Prayer for Protection
Remembering God's loving provision
Show me the wonders of your great love…
keep me as the apple of your eye.
Psalm 17:7-8
Moses first used the phrase to describe the loving provision of God to Israel while in the wilderness: God kept us as the apple of his eye (Deut. 32:10). David relied on this spiritual history as the basis of his appeal to God for protection (Psalm 17:8).
