Stops & Steps 1369 10VII2010

HE helps us everytime

God helps us to see beyond the veil of our prejudices and fears. He helps us to see ourselves present in places, among people, where we often are unprepared to look. He helps us to learn the lessons of our past, that we might more faithfully represent us in the world as people of love, justice and service.

Psalm 139 : 1 – 10
“O LORD, you have searched me and known me. You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from far away. You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, O LORD, you know it completely. You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is so high that I cannot attain it. Where can I go from your spirit? Or where can I flee from your presence? If I ascend to heaven, you are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, you are there. If I take the wings of the morning and settle at the farthest limits of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me fast.”
