Renewed.... Again


“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.”  Psalm 23:4

“He restores my soul...”  Psalm 23:3a

This is what Your comfort, renewal, restoration and encouragement has looked like lately, Lord......

Spending time with my Daddy and my family celebrating Daddy’s 98th birthday 

Daddy’s 98th birthday party with family and friends 

Spending precious time listening to my Daddy reminiscing about his adventures in life and soaking it all in

My sweetheart and I recovering from a nasty stomach/intestinal “bug” just in time to travel home from seeing my Daddy

Visiting with a couple who are also struggling with the husband’s neurological issues; so wonderful to talk with someone who understands 

The showing of our house while we were gone

Safety in our travels

Taking communion this morning 

And above all, Lord, hearing from You in Your Word this morning as You lifted my soul above my circumstances to remember that You are leading and guiding this walk with You moment by moment.  Just the encouragement that I needed to get out of the pit where I seemed to be languishing.  Now... on to the next step of our journey together, Lord.  Where do we go from here?  With You as my Leader and my Rear Guard I will be more than a conqueror.  

“Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.”  James 1:12
