Hi Ma!

[mountainlion]

Another nice warm day today. Lots of snow melted. I can use my driveway now. Life is good. You would not catch me in a submarine though. We have heroes for jobs like that.

Watched by God

Bible in a Year:

• Deuteronomy 8–10
• Mark 11:19–33

The Lord watches over you.

Psalm 121:5

Our little grandson waved goodbye, then turned back with a question. “Grandma, why do you stand on the porch and watch until we leave?” I smiled at him, finding his question “cute” because he’s so young. Seeing his concern, however, I tried to give a good answer. “Well, it’s a courtesy,” I told him. “If you’re my guest, watching until you leave shows I care.” He weighed my answer, but still looked perplexed. So, I told him the simple truth. “I watch,” I said, “because I love you. When I see your car drive away, I know you’re safely heading home.” He smiled, giving me a tender hug. Finally, he understood.

His childlike understanding reminded me what all of us should remember—that our heavenly Father is constantly watching over each of us, His precious children. As Psalm 121 says, “The Lord watches over you—the Lord is your shade at your right hand” (v. 5).

What assurance for Israel’s pilgrims as they climbed dangerous roads to Jerusalem to worship. “The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon at night. The Lord keeps you from all harm—he will watch over your life” (vv. 6–7). Likewise, as we each climb our life’s road, sometimes facing spiritual threat or harm, “The Lord will watch over [our] coming and going.” Why? His love. When? “Now and forevermore” (v. 8).

Reflect & Pray

What “mountain” are you climbing today? What assurance do you find in knowing God is watching over you?

Our loving Father, as we travel the road of life, thank You for watching over us, keeping us safe.

A very pleasant good Monday morning and ((HUGS)) to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

How's everyone doing this morning?

Hat tip to
Henry Breault

Thank you, Ma for preparing
the Canteen for today's activities.

Just popping in to say Good Morning and to say Thank You
to all who have served and all who now serve.

Gotta run. We're on the road again today, and need to get an early start.

Please stay right where you are.
Chat up the military or a family member.
No need to fret...you know I'll be back!

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS
