Surrounded

Psalm 125:1-2

Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem so the Lord surrounds his people both now and forever more.

Click on the Larger Map to see the mountains that surround Jerusalem. It is completely surrounded. I love to feel (and know) that God is surrounding me that way. I have my days where I feel a disconnect from the Lord, but the returning to dwell in his presence is so sweet and so very comforting. This peace comes only from him. I pray that through your week you will be more aware of him surrounding you..in and through all situations.

What an awesome thing to think about! I love those google maps... speaking of these maps you can see the very apartment I used to live in on the street view, now that is outa' control: http://maps.google.com/maps?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=s&hl=en&q=51+Bates+St.+Pittsburgh,+PA+15213&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&resnum=1&ct=title

God's love is amazing just like those mountains - if it wasn't for the Holy Spirit giving me faith, I wouldn't believe it at all.

Edie- Shabbat Shalom!
Stephanie- I'm glad God spoke to you through this..aren't you supposed to be on a break?? BTW, I am still getting to the 6 things I've learned this year! Sorry it's taking me a while.
Socrates- Hi!
Penn- You didn't tell me you used to live in the white house! Everything about God and his love and knowledge of us is hard to fathom. He is unbelievable..and undeniable.
