Psalms 91
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the LORD,
"My refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust."
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence.
He will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
You will not fear the terror of the night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
nor the destruction that wastes at noonday.
A thousand may fall at your side,
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
You will only look with your eyes
and see the recompense of the wicked.
Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place—
Because you have made the LORD your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge—
no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
On their hands they will bear you up,
lest you strike your foot against a stone.
You will tread on the lion and the adder;
the young lion and the serpent you will trample underfoot.
"Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
"Because he holds fast to me in love, I will deliver him;
I will protect him, because he knows my name.
When he calls to me, I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will rescue him and honor him.
With long life I will satisfy him
and show him my salvation."
Praise be to God...
Who is the Faithful One...

A very powerful post, as was the one below. A giant thank you to your son for protecting us. My husband and I both come from military families so we understand the heart-break and the overwhelming joy, the anxiety and the prayers. Thank God Almighty he is back with all of you.
Thank you for sharing your son with your country and the world for an attempt at peace. Thank you for sharing these posts with all of us. The pictures are amazing. Standing out in my mind are the total difference in body language with the good-bye hug with Dad so filled with grief and the hello hug so filled with comfort and joy. The girlfriend run says it all too. And the hug, I'm assuming with mom, was so tight and just brought tears to my eyes.
Thank God! I am so glad for you that your son is back. Thank him for us for risking his life to protect us. Your previous post is so moving too. I loved the photos and the writing. It really brought tears and memories. Our military men and women and all the loved ones they leave behind are so strong and brave.
Wishing you many moments of joy and peace as you all transition back together and as he readjusts to American life on safe soil.
thank you for sharing this. A moving photo and a beautiful verse.
I love that picture DeeDee! It is very moving, and the scripture is one of my favorites, it is so powerful and so comforting...
Praising God with you for His protection over Jonathan and for bringing him home safely!!
