I got this idea from Lizraelupdate.com’s blog about Gilad Shalit.
What have I done in the last three years? Since June 2006 – graduated my son from high school, helped with my kid’s many plays they were in, fixed many sack lunches for my husband, gone to two family reunions, took a trip to Israel with Homeschool Travel, camped a few times in state parks.
We pray for the soon release of Gilad Shalit. May he find comfort in knowing many are praying for him.
Psalm 131
1 Lord, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.
2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
3 Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever.
This is my 131st post, and this psalm fits it quite well. Actually, this is the 132nd post; Psalm 132 can be read here.
The road may be dark and long but the promises of HaShem are forever and true.
Psalms Chapter 23
1 A Psalm of David. HaShem is my shepherd; I shall not want.
2 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures; He leadeth me beside the still waters.
3 He restoreth my soul; He guideth me in straight paths for His name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me.
5 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies; Thou hast anointed my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I shall dwell in the house of HaShem for ever.
