MY HELP

Mt. Hood, reflecting on Trillium Lake in Oregon

I was thinking of this photo last night during choir practice.

It's one I snapped a few years ago

while on a west coast road trip with my brother.

Thought about it because of a song we're singing.

Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir's MY HELP
.

I will lift up mine eyes to the hills

From whence cometh my help

My help cometh from the Lord

The Lord Which made heaven and earth

He said, He will not suffer thy foot;

thy foot to be moved

The Lord Which keepeth thee

He will not slumber nor sleep

For the Lord is thy keeper

The Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand

Upon thy right hand

For the sun shall not smite thee by day

Nor the moon by night

He shall preserve thy soul

Even forever more

My help, My help My help, All of my help Cometh from the Lord

It's one of my favourites from BTC.

Simple

Scriptural

Comforting

Encouraging

Faithful-building

Powerful

ARE WE THERE YET?

I've been told it's been a whole month (and a day) since I've done anything here. The question is .... does that mean i've seen nothing and learned nothing? That would be sad indeed. I have seen things ... there's a few pics posted below. I've learned a few things too (whew!)

Yesterday walking with Glyn and the kids to and through Battlefield Park. ARE WE THERE YET? I'm not quite sure how many times that phrase was uttered ... but it was greater than 15 and less than a million.

It's a phrase I've uttered on numerous occasions when in conversation with God. I sometimes get impatient with the journey. I'd like to arrive at the various destination spots along the way a little more quickly. I've learned though ... sometimes if I'm all impatient to "get there" I can miss some pretty impressive stuff along the way. I wonder if He gets tired of hearing the question?
