Oftentimes the best teachers can say the most by saying the least. Jesus was a master teacher and often spoke in pictures of lilies, foxes, widows, sheep, and other subjects. Dr. Charles Ryrie was known at Dallas Theological Seminary for having that gift. In reading Psalm 28 recently, it struck me that David used two words to describe what the Lord was to him, his shield and his strength. So his response to those two characteristics of the Lord was for his heart to affirm it's trust in Him and confidence...I am helped. It is good to know that amidst so many circumstances, adversaries, and clear opposition, we have a Protector. Our response is simple in that we are to trust and understand we are helped.
Medical update: Bilirubin has come down to 23. Dismissal from Nebraska Medical Center was welcome news. The hospitality of my brother Kevin and his family was graciously enjoyed, but it is good to be back in McCook, back to ministry, back to family, and back to what we love.
