MOUNTAIN CLIMBING SONG



Those who trust in the LORD are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people both now and forevermore. PSALM 125:1,2 NIV

It’s all still up in the air. Three weeks into the government shutdown, people needing their money to live on, pawns in this political battle. Thousands of hopefuls making the deadly trek to our southern border, ready to break our immigration laws—those laws Congress hasn’t already hamstrung. Many dangerous types infiltrating their number with an eye to harming us, many of our citizens robbed, raped, tortured, killed.

Will our President use his emergency powers to build this wall of purpose and compassion?

Me, sometimes I think Congress—the stonewalling for personal ambition part—is a national emergency.

God doesn’t have to use His emergency powers to protect us. He has none, needs none. He has all power. What He says He can do. What He says He will do. What He says He wants to do. (Not like Congress.)

No one can say to Him, “What do You think You’re doing?!” No one, no politicians, no liberal judges, can say, ‘No’, to Him and make it stick.  

The US border wall may or may not happen—but what is that to us, the children of our God? Whatever the world may plan or attempt, He surrounds us with His love, His power, His protection. And, He doesn’t have to summon up emergency powers to do it.

Pray for His wisdom, His purpose, His plan. Thank Him for the wall He is around us.

Avi, what a privilege You are to us. I have no words. In Your Holy Name, Amen.

  1. OK, I'm back, at least until my computer shuts me out again. Sorry for the long absence, but when my video card had to be replaced, my shortcut went away, and my password didn't work, and my brain is both old and full. How do so many of you get this computer techie stuff so easy? Grace
