Of course, since I still live in central Ohio, there aren’t a lot of hills to look “unto” so a picture will have to do. The shot was from our honeymoon in Colorado…Eric has been playing with all our digital pictures for the last few days, sorting them and organizing, so I was reminded of these pictures and thought I’d share one.
Of course, this morning, particularly, I needed the reminder that the verse in the title provides. My help comes from the Lord, maker of heaven and earth. I’m feeling a lot overwhelmed this week with conferences (I’m on my way back to CU for the day…I’ll be there every day this week) and the upcoming Christmas program. I spent last night at the church finishing the filming for our videos and trying to feel less disorganized. But this morning, I was pretty overwhelmed by what feels like the immensity of this week, its activities and the importance of those activities.
Then again…the picture above is the reminder I most need. We’re pretty small compared with the hills…and my God made those hills. He’s infinitely bigger than they. So this week, the Christmas program, the conferences and final weeks of school…I am growing my faith this week, working to remember and really believe that “The LORD is my shepherd; I have everything I need” (NLT).
(And I’d appreciate your prayers if you think of it…)

I hear you about the enormity of all the activities that you’re involved in. I’m feeling much the same way. Thanks for the reminder that we have a God who can handle anything…and He really cares about how we feel! I needed that reminder, too!
You’ll get through it, I promise!!
Have fun at conferences!
Praying for you now. How is it that you are able to be so uplifting to me in your request to be uplifted/
