Psalm 77:11-15 I will remember the works of the Lord; surely I will remember Your wonders of old. I will also meditate on all Your work, and talk of Your deeds. Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary; Who is so great a God as our God? You are the God who does wonders; You have declared Your strength among the peoples. You have with Your arm redeemed Your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Colossians 2:6-7 As…..

Psalm 23:3b He leads me in the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. But if one really believes his affairs are in God’s hands, every event, no matter whether joyous or tragic, will be taken as part of God’s plan.

The Longest Days ”Men whose wisdom and courage make them worthy of heaven are called heroes.” -Motto, Clan Maitland 1944. It seems so long ago, but it wasn’t, really. I was blessed to be in Normandy for the 57th anniversary of D-Day. I attended the memorial services at Omaha and Utah. I met the brave men who were there that day. I walked through the row on row of 9,000 white crosses and stars, sobbing as I read the names…..
Psalm 23:3a He restores my soul. One of the great revelations of the heart of God given to us by Christ is that of Himself as our Shepherd. He has the same identical sensations of anxiety, concern, and compassion for cast men and women as I had for cast sheep. This is precisely why He looked on people with such pathos and compassion. It discloses the depth of His understanding of undone people to whom He came eagerly and quickly,…..
