It has been said that your equilibrium is impaired when you reach a certain stage in pregnancy. Well, not only is my balance off, so went my waistline and my brain. I want them all back! My work hours have been a little longer than normal in preparation for the move to our new center and my maternity leave. As a result of that and my always tired and sleepy state, my husband has had to lend an extra hand and foot around the house. He has really been extraordinary! Unfortunately, to his dismay all of his efforts are not able to save me from what I've been experiencing lately.

My spiritual resistance is low and I know I need a hiding place. I have been feeling extremely weak and incapable of completing anything. I'm emotionally exhausted and physically spent. During my commute this evening the Lord really ministered through a song on Babbie Mason's new CD. The lyrics reinforce the awesome power found in the name of the lord. As I meditated on the nature of God I suddenly became overwhelmed by his presence. Tomorrow's schedule, responsibilities awaiting me at home and yesterday's issues seemed miles behind me. The righteous run into it and are safe. Am I not the righteous? Surely, he is the only tower fortified enough to hide me. I needed a hiding place. He is a defender and shield. Protector and Provider is he. My Peace washed over me like the lake front wind. The cares of this world seemed to have overtaken me. But there in the middle of the Dan Ryan appeared a Strong Tower. I ran into it and I was safe.
