Above the Horizon

I just spent a little over twenty four hours with my parents. They are wonderful, godly people... but oh so uptight. And it got me to thinking about all the stuff that makes me who I am. For example, what if I resolved from my heart to be more positive? How will I pull it off? Psalm 121 comes to mind. My help doesnt come from the same source as the world around me. My help comes from the Lord. I dont know just how we are going to get through the next phase of our lives. But Lord, Ive known you all my life. And you have never failed me. And when I think about the New Jerusalem, I know that the end of all of this is amazing. So even if my life goes up in flames, Im going up to You. Youve got this. So I dont need to be afraid. My life is not in the next step. My life is in You. And now that ive had this moment, i know that all hell is going to break loose. Will you shield me? Because hell sucks. And I dont think I can take any more. Please Lord, bless my life. Please God, dont let me go. Shine on me with the smile of your favor. Because all i really want to be is happy. and happiness is found in You. So I know life has its ups and downs. But Kimberly and I could sure use some ups. Please Lord. My eyes are fixed above the horizon.
