As I pray the Psalms, my trust in God’s promises grows deeper. He knows the “big picture.” He loves us.
I am grateful for prayer. I’ve added a few more pieces of tape to my old Bible these last months, as two dear family members were called Home.
Now simply holding this Bible, or seeing it in my study, also is a comfort.
Yesterday, the colors outside my window were gold, grey, and green. So beautiful.
