Trust

When I cannot read,

when I cannot think.

when I cannot even pray,

I can trust.

I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand
and says to you,
"Do not fear.
I will help you."
Isaiah 41:13

One Thing

The one thing I want from God, the thing I seek most of all, is the privilege of meditating in his Temple, living in his presence every day of my life, delighting in his incomparable perfections and glory. There I’ll be when troubles come. He will hide me. He will set me on a high rock out of reach of all my enemies.  

My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me, O my people.” And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.”
Ps 27: 4-6, 8 Living Bible

My son Cameron started the long drive back to New Jersey this morning. It was good to hear about his ministry opportunities in the greater NYC area, and his experiences in Israel. I got to see many beautiful photos of the Holy Land.

Lord, I Offer My Life to You

What can we give that You have not given?

And what do we have that is not already Yours?

All we possess are these lives we're living

And that's what we give to You, Lord.

Good Times

My kids and grandkids like to eat! I made a cake and brownies. They left me one teeny bite of brownie in the corner of the pan. (I think they just didn't want to have to wash the pan. LOL) Everybody seemed to have a good time here  playing games and singing carols. Cameron is here from New Jersey and I had a nice chat on the phone with my oldest son Carl in Virginia.

Light of the World

Jesus spoke to them saying, 

"I am the light of the world. 

Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, 

but will have the light of life." 

John 8:12
