Sorry, my dear readers that I’ve been gone so long. Thanks for following my blog and for being a loyal follower. Truth be told, it got to be too much for me. I have ILD [1]. The doctors told me that once diagnosed, it’s 3-5, maybe 4-6 if it goes into IPF [2] and they diagnosed it 2-3 years ago. But praise God, I believe in the great physician, Jesus Christ.

I like the way my sister says it best, “I’m going to leave this ole world completely exhausted,” having spent it all. Like before, I’ll try and post one every Monday, unless the Lord comes for me on a weekend, in which case, I’ll see you at Christ’s place. In the meantime, enjoy Psalm 91. I’ll continue next Monday with Staying on Course.

Ps 91:1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
Ps 91:2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Ps 91:3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
Ps 91:4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
Ps 91:5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Ps 91:6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
Ps 91:7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Ps 91:8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Ps 91:9 Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
Ps 91:10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
Ps 91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
Ps 91:12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
Ps 91:13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
Ps 91:14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
Ps 91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
Ps 91:16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

Lord, thank you for dying for me and for never leaving or forsaking me. Thank you for giving me such a beautiful life and family. Thanks for being my refuge and my fortress and my God. I will trust in you always.

Love the Lord with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength [3].
