On the Road

I praise the Lord for my safe journey to Phoenix. I saw my Dad and helped him move into his new apartment. Boy, it sure was hot there in Phoenix. But we managed and got some groceries and other household supplies. My Dad got all the fixin's to make cornbread and we picked up a new Paula Deen frying pan. I've just been dreamin' of that good ol' food. Alas, there wasn't too much time to cook a big spread on this visit.

I told Dad I started reading the Bible and I'm now reading Psalms. He said he was on Psalms too with his Bible Reading. Here's a couple of verses that I thought were noteworthy:

Blessed be the Lord, Because He has heard the voice of my supplication.
The Lord is my strength and my shield; My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped;
Therefore my heart exults, And with my song I shall thank Him.
The Lord is their strength, And He is a saving defense to His annointed.
Save Thy people, and bless Thine inheiritance; Be their shepherd also, and carry them foreever.
Psalms 28:6-9

How blessed is he who considers the helpless; The Lord will deliver him in a day of trouble. The Lord will protect him, and keep him alive.
And he shall be called blessed upon earth; And do not give him over to the desire of his enemies.
The Lord will sustain him upon his sickbed;
In his illness Thou dost restore him to health. Psalms 40:1-3
