23 Nevertheless I am continually with You;
You have taken hold of my right hand.
24 With Your counsel You will guide me,
And afterward receive me to glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but You?
And besides You, I desire nothing on earth.
26 My flesh and my heart may fail,
But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
Psalm 73:23-26 (NASB)
It’s the weekend. Around here we remove our shoes and tour the stillness. Start with Sandra Heska King’s Still Saturday. While you’re there, take a look around at Sandy’s gorgeous new digs, by the way. Then head over to The Sunday Community at Deidra Rigg’s amazing space. You’ll join us, yes? We’ve saved you a place.
Yes, God is the strength of my heart. All I can count on. Thanks for sharing.
Ah, Joanne, me too. But so often I let myself believe otherwise. And it never ends well. Blessings, my friend.
By the way: In the interest of full disclosure, my amazing husband brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers and took me out for a special dinner.
“Whom have I in heaven but You?
And besides You, I desire nothing on earth.”
This is my heart’s cry, beautifully presented. Thank you for visiting me today.

Thank you, Cassandra. February can be such a lonely time. I can imagine a world where everyone’s desire is only God.
Holding hands – I miss how my boys used to hold my hand, how they needed that hand holding:) So glad He holds my hand that way too – but so much better! Wishing you blessing this week

Maryleigh, I have grandsons who are young enough to hold my hand. There’s nothing quite so sweet, is there? Thank you for visiting.
