Unless the Lord builds the house
Those who build it labour in vain
Unless the Lord watches over the city
The watchman stays awake in vain
It is in vain that you rise up early
and go late to rest,
eating the bread of anxious toil
for he gives to his beloved sheep
.
Lo, sons are a heritage from the Lord
the fruit of the womb a reward
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are the sons of one's youth
Happy is the man who has
his quiver full of them
He shall not be put to shame
when he speaks with his enemies
in the gate.
.
How absolutely true!! Everything comes from the Lord God, whatever we have, it is through God's grace and blessings,- our directions, where we are, our friends, our careers, our family, our peace, joy, happiness, our rewards, our everything-they all come from our Father in Heaven. Folks take some time and reflect on this beautiful psalm, indeed success and fruitfulness does come from the Lord God. Let us therefore, Pray, believe and Trust in the God of Creations, for only He knows what tomorrow holds for us; only He, God can smoothen and light up our paths in life.

Hi Marie, What a coincidence! I discovered your blogspot while going through the Lourdes Jubilee Souvenir.Within two hours I went through your musings for this year. I am so pleased and enjoyed going through your "thoughts". Keep writing dear. I for one look forward to 'hearing'from you.
