“ I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the LORD,
who made heaven and earth.” – Psalm 121

We memorized the whole chapter and prayed it almost daily in school in Dominica.

In my youth, I didn’t understand it’s full meaning, now that I’m older, I’m fully aware of its significance.

It is a reminder that there is a place of peace and rest that we can turn to in the midst of a hard season.

Life is a journey of unexpected joys and sorrows and God is here for it all. Nothing catches him off the guard. He’s not stunned by the things that leave us speechless. He is a place of peace and rest.

Be at peace to you who are hurting. Find rest from the turmoil and pain of the past.
