Wishing all a Happy Saturday and a beautiful week-end.
One more week before Marissa leaves for camp.
She is anxious ... 6 1/2 days away with friends.
Thank you all for being here. I appreciate it.

Wow, thanks ML! You all are good and I like your voice! I didn’t watch clear through because my video driver is shutting me down when I watch some videos and utubes - but I had to take a chance on this one, lol! Glad I did.

Seeing Beyond Loss July 12, 2015
I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High. I will remember the works of the Lord.
Psalm 77:10-11
Author William Zinsser described his last visit to see the house where he grew up, a place he greatly loved as a boy. When he and his wife arrived at the hill overlooking Manhasset Bay and Long Island Sound, they found that the house had been demolished. All that remained was a huge hole. Disheartened, they walked to the nearby seawall. Zinsser looked across the bay, absorbing the sights and sounds. Later, he wrote of this experience, I was at ease and only slightly sad. The view was intact: the unique configuration of land and sea I remember so well that I still dream about it.
The psalmist wrote of a difficult time when his soul refused to be comforted and his spirit was overwhelmed (Ps. 77:2-3). But in the midst of his trouble, he shifted his focus from his sadness to his Savior, saying, I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High. I will remember the works of the Lord . . . Your wonders of old (vv. 10-11).
In dealing with disappointment, we can either focus on our loss or on God Himself. The Lord invites us to look to Him and see the scope of His goodness, His presence with us, and His eternal love.
Heavenly Father, this life can be both wonderful and disappointing. We know that things are not the way they ought to be. Our disappointments cause us to turn to You, the only true hope for the world.

Faith in Gods goodness keeps hope alive.
The Psalms are moving reflections on life and God. In todays psalm Asaph shares the disappointment of feeling as though God has abandoned him. But Asaph also shows us how to change our perspective. We do this by focusing on the character and deeds of the Lord. Our circumstances may not change, but we will see them in a different wayagainst the backdrop of God.
