I lift up my eyes to the hills - 
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.

Psalm 121

  3. It sometimes happens that just the right words come at just the right time. We've spent most of this week in hospital and I've spent a lot of time talking to God. Reading your blog was like hearing back.
