TODAY'S VERSE! WOW!

VERSE: 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 121:7-8


THOUGHT: One of my hardest challenges as a parent is knowing that I can't ultimately protect my children from some hurts and heartbreaks. Some of that pain is necessary to help them mature and grow. Some of it is just the agonizing result of living in a fallen world. But, we can be fully confident that if we share the Lord with them, if they give their lives to his will, nothing can steal them from his ultimate victory, care, and reunion with us and with him. Knowing how we love them, imagine how much the Father loves us and longs to bring us to that place of safety in his house! Until we get home, isn't it comforting to know that he is watching over us and those we love, now and forevermore?

Anita,
Only now did I read your last few posts. I am now praying fervently for little Bright, and his whole family. You've said it already, but I want to say to you again that He has a plan in all things! He will make things happen!
It may not be under ideal circumstances but you are meeting your son in four days!!!!!!

Love,
Jasmine
