I'm Finally Back!

I’m almost giddy that I can get back into my blogger account!

My laptop died several months ago, and I haven’t been able to purchase another. At least the guys at the Geek Squad were able to retrieve everything from my hard drive, so I didn’t lose anything except the machine itself.

I’ve missed writing on my blog. So many things happen in life, and it’s good to be able to sit down and think about it. Today, I’m thinking about the great encouragement I receive from this passage:

Psalm 121

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
    where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
    the Maker 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 slumber nor sleep.

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.

I don’t really know where I would be in my life without the gracious and far-reaching love that Jesus Christ has for me.

While the world may seem to turn upside down, the truth is God is still on His throne. He is not surprised at what happens to us, around us, for us. And although times can be somewhat difficult, and oh, have they been difficult over the past few years, I can so clearly see the strand of Love woven throughout it all.

And He does it for everyone who calls His name. He makes us new. He makes us Flawless.
