Round-the-Clock Vigil

Greetings,

A week ago yesterday my daughter's child, a dog named Blue,  had her beautiful puppies, and we are all crazy about them. I have been visiting her more than usual  -  I assure you my son-in-law enjoys my company  - and later today I will be puppy sitting.  Even so, their first week of life was exhausting.  It was a round-the-clock vigil making sure mom and babies were fed, hydrated, warm, and comfortable. Rachel and her husband, Emilio, have been true warriors barely sleeping more than a couple hours at night.  As she puts it, "When any puppy whimpers, no matter how quietly, I hear it, and I get up."  

God understands this profoundly.  And today, as we pray right out of the Bible from Psalm 121, let's be grateful,  that unlike Rachel, Emilio, and the rest of us, God has perfect execution. He keeps a round-the-clock vigil over our lives, but He never takes a break.  

 "My helps comes from You, Lord, the maker of heaven and earth. You will not let me fall, and You, my Guardian, will not fall asleep. Indeed, You never rest or sleep. You are my shade, and the sun will not beat down on me during the day nor will the moon at night. You guard me from every evil.  You guard my life.  You guard me as I come and go, now and forever." AMEN.
