My Help Comes From the Lord

Psalm 121

I lift up my eyes to the hills,
From where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.

He will not let your foot be moved;
he who keeps you will not slumber.
Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your keeper;
the Lord is your shade on yor right hand.
The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.

The Lord will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.
The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.

I read this passage this morning and it just reminded me how lucky I am. I may not have my visa yet, but I have a Father who keeps my going out and coming in! He is the keeper. He is sending me to East Asia and I will be going there in His timing. The waiting is not fun, and I have to remind myself quite frequently, but He is control and I would have it no other way.

Maybe I am not ready to go yet? Maybe there is something I need to be here for? Maybe I still need to learn something? Maybe I am supposed to be here for someone else? All I know is that I will go when He wants me to go.
