No good thing does he withhold from those who walk blameless!
Psalm 84 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)

] 1 How lovely is your dwelling place,
O LORD Almighty!
2 My soul yearns, even faints,
2 My soul yearns, even faints,
for the courts of the LORD;
my heart and my flesh cry out
for the living God.
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may have her young—
a place near your altar,
O LORD Almighty, my King and my God.
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
they are ever praising you. Selah
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca,
they make it a place of springs;
the autumn rains also cover it with pools. [b]
7 They go from strength to strength,
7 They go from strength to strength,
till each appears before God in Zion.
8 Hear my prayer, O LORD God Almighty;
8 Hear my prayer, O LORD God Almighty;
listen to me, O God of Jacob. Selah
9 Look upon our shield, [c] O God;
9 Look upon our shield, [c] O God;
look with favor on your anointed one.
10 Better is one day in your courts
10 Better is one day in your courts
than a thousand elsewhere;
I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God
than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield;
11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield;
the LORD bestows favor and honor;
no good thing does he withhold
from those whose walk is blameless.
12 O LORD Almighty,
12 O LORD Almighty,
blessed is the man who trusts in you.

Sandy, you've been in my thoughts and prayers throughout the day. Please let me know if there is anyway I can encourage you better - you've been such an encouragement to Brad and I in the last few months. Cling to our Father - He'll never let you down.

thanks Jen. Just keep praying. Remember when YOU get scared (and I know you do) that God is enough.
