Do not  
leave us 
comfortless, 
but send us 
your Holy Spirit 
to strengthen us



                      As I went about my Sunday morning
                chores, watering the yard and filling the
           bird feeders, it struck me that the plea is that
      we not be left alone/abandonned/on our own. 
   But what we need most is strength.

   The span
   of our life  
   is 70 years
   perhaps in 
   strength 
   even 80…   
   yet they 
   pass away 
   quickly and 
   are gone… So 
   teach us to number our days, that 
   we may apply our hearts to wisdom.

                                 *Hmmmm… this is the frst time 
                                 I have read this psalm since turning 
                     70, which gives it a new poignancy for sure!
