Bible Marginalia series- #186
Psalm 121
I had stamped this page about 2 years ago.
It was a favorite psalm of my mom's.
Sometimes that keeps me from coming back
because I fear that what ever I engage here
on this page won't be special enough.
But, as I was "drawn" to this psalm
in a lectionary reading-
a door opened.
I know the first verse well.
And as usual in my time for margin work,
new things sprang forward.
The Lord KEEPS me.

The Lord KEEPS me from evil .
The Lord KEEPS me and never sleeps.
The Lord KEEPS my life.
