My day was long and, at times, frustrating. I find that I am not quite as cheerful or patient when I am sick. I do not seem to have very much tolerance for things not going as I expected and I don't handle multiple tasks very well. By the grace of God, I was able to survive this day though I probably could've benefitted from another day resting and healing in bed. As I prepare for bed tonight, I think of Psalm 23 and it gives me peace. The Lord is with me always no matter how I feel and is watching over me. Indeed tonight I am going to let Him lead me by still waters and refresh my soul. I hope you all have a blessed and safe day tomorrow. I leave you with the 23rd Psalm saying,
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths
for his name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,[a]
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,
3 he refreshes my soul.

4 Even though I walk
through the darkest valley,[a]
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.
Blessings,
