He is my steadfast love

        and my fortress,

my stronghold

        and my deliverer,

my shield,

and He in whom

        I take refuge.

             Psalm 144. 2

(How do I see God?

How do I know Him?

How we view God

   directly impacts

how we see circumstances,

how we see others,

and how we see ourselves.

Our relationship with God

directs the trajectory

               of our lives.

And what I am going through

increases not just

my knowledge of Him,

but deepens my knowing Him.

"What comes into our minds

when we think about God

is the most important thing

                      about us."

        -- A. W. Tozer

O LORD,

In You we live and move

and have our being (Acts 17. 27).

We can trust You

   even through what

   is before us,

   behind us,

   and what comes next.

Help us to remember

   that You call us Beloved.

Help us to run with You

          into this day.
