Spring at Wits' End

Since I didn't get around to the photos for last week's list and I'm running low on words this evening after an appointment downtown, let's keep this simple. However your week has begun, I pray the Lord stills and rests your heart for these next moments as you scroll down.

Find rest, O my soul, in God alone;
my hope comes from him.
He alone is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
My salvation and my honor depend on God;
he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your hearts to him,
for God is our refuge.
Selah
Psalm 62:5-8, NIV1984












Thank You, Lord, for
Your kind gift of a beautiful creation,
mallards and finches and sparrows,
hollyhocks and larkspur,
edible plants,
butterflies drinking in nectar and soaring free
a moth as big as a hummingbird
the heavens declaring Your glory

a bruised foot healing slowly
good lab results from annual check-up
no bone loss from last year
my Father using my body to tell me to still
good sinus report today!
good job news for brother-in-law
answered prayer

praying with kind women after Bible study
talking over Numbers
the beauty of watching a young man worship his way off a television talent show
("He is everything" to me too)
(Gratitude journal # 5606-5618)
