Psalm 121
September 16, 2007
Andy and I are working on reading through the Bible in a year. I have read some really amazing pieces of Scripture that I have read before but seen something new. I just finished reading Psalm 121 and instead of sharing a story with you I would like to share a beautiful piece of Scripture:
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 ife;
the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
when i was in grade 3 sunday school, i had to memorize this psalm, and ever since it has been my favourite. it is such an amazing promise of faithfulness and care.
