rhythm of life

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 yoy will not slumber;

indeeed, he who watches over Israel

will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord watches over you-

the Lord is my shade at my 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 my life;

The Lord will watch over your coming and going

both now and forevermore.

So it took a procedure to trust. It took a stripping-away of my mortal body to find peace. It took my friends and family to come alongside me to experience love. It took my will to praise. It took faith to reach forward. It took a higher One to find my purpose. It took His Promises to secure my stance. It took His Son to break me away from my infirmities. It took the results of the procedure to experience grace.
