Indeed it is a long way HOME. I am just a pilgrim passing through in this world. And when the time has come for my departure I can proudly say "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." (2 Timothy 4:6-7)<br />
<br />
<br />
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.<br />
(Jeremiah 29:11)<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Psalm 139<br />
<br />
1 You have searched me, Lord,<br />
and you know me.<br />
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;<br />
you perceive my thoughts from afar.<br />
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;<br />
you are familiar with all my ways.<br />
4 Before a word is on my tongue<br />
you, Lord, know it completely.<br />
5 You hem me in behind and before,<br />
and you lay your hand upon me.<br />
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,<br />
too lofty for me to attain.<br />
<br />
<br />
7 Where can I go from your Spirit?<br />
Where can I flee from your presence?<br />
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;<br />
if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.<br />
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,<br />
if I settle on the far side of the sea,<br />
10 even there your hand will guide me,<br />
your right hand will hold me fast.<br />
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me<br />
and the light become night around me,”<br />
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;<br />
the night will shine like the day,<br />
for darkness is as light to you.<br />
<br />
<br />
13 For you created my inmost being;<br />
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.<br />
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;<br />
your works are wonderful,<br />
I know that full well.<br />
15 My frame was not hidden from you<br />
when I was made in the secret place,<br />
when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.<br />
16 Your eyes saw my unformed body;<br />
all the days ordained for me were written in your book<br />
before one of them came to be.<br />
17 How precious to me are your thoughts,[a] God!<br />
How vast is the sum of them!<br />
18 Were I to count them,<br />
they would outnumber the grains of sand—<br />
when I awake, I am still with you.<br />
<br />
<br />
19 If only you, God, would slay the wicked!<br />
Away from me, you who are bloodthirsty!<br />
20 They speak of you with evil intent;<br />
your adversaries misuse your name.<br />
21 Do I not hate those who hate you, Lord,<br />
and abhor those who are in rebellion against you?<br />
22 I have nothing but hatred for them;<br />
I count them my enemies.<br />
23 Search me, God, and know my heart;<br />
test me and know my anxious thoughts.<br />
24 See if there is any offensive way in me,<br />
and lead me in the way everlasting.<br />
<br />
Psalm 91<br />
<br />
1 Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High<br />
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.[a]<br />
2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress,<br />
my God, in whom I trust.”<br />
<br />
<br />
3 Surely he will save you<br />
from the fowler’s snare<br />
and from the deadly pestilence.<br />
4 He will cover you with his feathers,<br />
and under his wings you will find refuge;<br />
his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.<br />
5 You will not fear the terror of night,<br />
nor the arrow that flies by day,<br />
6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,<br />
nor the plague that destroys at midday.<br />
7 A thousand may fall at your side,<br />
ten thousand at your right hand,<br />
but it will not come near you.<br />
8 You will only observe with your eyes<br />
and see the punishment of the wicked.<br />
<br />
<br />
9 If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”<br />
and you make the Most High your dwelling,<br />
10 no harm will overtake you,<br />
no disaster will come near your tent.<br />
11 For he will command his angels concerning you<br />
to guard you in all your ways;<br />
12 they will lift you up in their hands,<br />
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.<br />
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;<br />
you will trample the great lion and the serpent.<br />
<br />
<br />
14 “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;<br />
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.<br />
15 He will call on me, and I will answer him;<br />
I will be with him in trouble,<br />
I will deliver him and honor him.<br />
16 With long life I will satisfy him<br />
and show him my salvation.”<br />
