He has caused me to rely on my life verse for real.
I lift my eyes to the hills
Where does my help come from
My help comes from the Lord
The creator of heaven and earth.
He will not let your foot slip
He who watches over you will not slumber
Indeed, he who watches over Israel
Will neither sleep not slumber
The Lord watches over you
The Lord is your shade at your right hand
The sun will not harm you by day
Nor the moon by night
The Lord will keep you from all harm
He will watch over your life
The Lord will watch over your coming and going
Both now and forevermore
When I was a kid growing up in Fort Worth, it never snowed. It iced, but never the white fluffy stuff.
For the past two year Father Winter has sent the white fluffy stuff. It throws everything off in our world, but hey, sometimes it is exactly what we need.
Whenever we think we have everything under control, we need something to turn over the apple cart and help us focus on what is important.
Because of where the city is located and how we think, we are not prepared to deal with snow. This causes us to be still.
Like everyone else, I get caught up in life. So I love it when nature just shuts everything down. We can send men into outer space and create bombs that can blow up half the world, but heavy rains, deep snow, mudslides and other nature events remind us of how much we really control.
We are vulnerable to the elements. It reminds us we are created.
Today I am thankful for friends. I have been blessed to know some of the most interesting people on the planet. They inspire me.
I am not talking about the words Facebook uses as friends. I am talking about those folks who have physically moved me over and over again. I am talking about the ones who we sat laughing so hard we almost passed out for lack of oxygen. I am talking about the ones have supported me through ups and downs.
My friends have taught me more than I ever learned in school. They have encouraged me. They have been God’s hugs and kisses. They bless me.
Today I am thankful for bible study. I have spent the last 17 years of my life in some type of structured bible study and it has changed my life. There is nothing like a two sided conversation with God. As I pour my life out to Him, He blesses me in ways I have never imagined. He gives me peace when there is turmoil in the world around. He gives me strength when times are tough. He gives me hope.
One of my favorite things about Him, is He loves to laugh. God has the best jokes. They are precious specifically designed for you.
I am very grateful that I serve a God who teaches me about Himself through his word, other Christians and circumstances. He is my vision.
Today I am thankful for family. DNA doesn’t lie. It can prove if there is a blood relation, but it can’t tell you if someone is family. Only time can tell you that. I have spent decades researching my family history and have been connected to thousands of people who may be relatives.
I have found amazing treasures from this research. Some of those gems are a group of folk in Oklahoma who blessed us by coming to our family reunion one year. Through the miracle of Facebook and email we have managed to stay in contact with them.
We have celebrated some of our victories and wept over our heartbreaks. This week was a heartbreak as our cousin Barbara Allen was taken to heaven suddenly.
We always think we are going to have another day to reunion on earth. The real reunion is going to be in heaven when we are all back together again, never more to depart.
My prayer for my family is that not one of us is left behind. It is going to be the Real Family Reunion.
