Already here

Psalm 18:1-2

I love you, O Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer.
My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge;
My shield and the strength of my salvation, my stronghold.

I love when the Lord reminds me that he is exactly what I need when I am feeling most like things are out of control.

I love that I don't need to ask him to draw near to me...
...he is already here.

I just need to draw on all he has provided me in Himself.

I really needed that reminder this morning as this week is off to a crazy start already.

After a visit to the local minute clinic this morning, they confirmed what we already knew...Jeremiah has strep. Poor thing. When he gets strep...he gets strep!

A much needed vacation to visit with Jeremiah's family in Florida and a possible funeral trip to Maryland were already in the plans for this week. Adding his sickness into the mix just makes it a little more fun =)

Good thing I don't have to rely on my strength.
