His Secret Place

Good morning everyone,
My heart is heavy this morning as I try to write today's devotional; My brother's companion Donna, is in the hospital. I plan on going to see her today. People get busy with their life and forget to visit others until it is either too late or when they are in the hospital. I can't go back and change the past, however I can begin to change today and the future in visiting or calling others more. I have to remember that Donna as all of us are in God's hands, dwelling in His secret place.
I don't know if Donna is saved. I pray I get the chance to talk to her and if she isn't to lead her to Jesus. The thing I keep asking myself is why I waited so long to do something so important.
Psalm 91:1-4
1 HE WHO dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand].
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust!
3 For [then] He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.
4 [Then] He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings shall you trust and find refuge; His truth and His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler.
A friend recently shared an article she wrote about "The Secret Place" in it she had this statement; "It is my experience that He will protect not only His children, but anything, no matter how small or insignificant, that we take to the Secret Place in Him. If it is something important to us, it is important to Him."
Today as you go about your day keep Doc and Donna, in your prayers. Ask God to give them strength, physically, spiritually and emotionally; may His quiet peace overflow them.
May God Bless all of you!
Joy
