It's nice to be reminded...

Last night at Bible Study my sweet friend Steph came up with a prop (nerd) to go along with our study of Psalms. We chose the Psalm that most spoke to where we currently are in life. I chose Psalm 16:1,5-11:

"Keep me safe, my God,
for in you I take refuge.
Lord, you have assigned me my portion and my cup.
You have made my lot secure.
The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely i have a delightful inheritance.
I will praise the Lord, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.
I keep my eyes always on the Lord.
With Him at my right hand, i will not be shaken.
Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices;
my body also will rest secure,
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead,
nor will you let your faithful one see decay.
You make known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand."

We may not understand why certain things come our way...but our Sweet Father in heaven does. He knows what we can handle and He walks with us through each day. Sometimes, it's nice to be reminded!!!
