If you make the Most High your dwelling – even the Lord Who is my refuge- then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. For He will command His angels concerning you, to guard you in all your ways…

I am back in DC and spent much of the day at the hospital cradling dear little Sebastian in my arms. Taylor and I rode in a van with Sebastian and his nurse to meet Rob at Children’s Hospital to have new casts put on his little legs. Most likely tomorrow they will put new splints on his tiny hands. Today we were told it seems he has a little pneumonia in one lung so they have begun him on antibiotics. He remains on several medications, as well as oxygen and the feeding tube.

As he lay on the big table at Children’s Hospital and four medical people and his parents and I observed, we saw a most calm tiny bright eyed Little One, undisturbed by the bright lights and the taping of his legs. Maybe it was that he has grown accustomed to such. Maybe it was his Mommy holding his hand and his Daddy holding his hand gently on his little head. Maybe it was C.C.’s and others prayers.

Maybe it was His angels guarding him in all his ways….once again.

Please continue your prayers of thanks and protections to our loving Lord, our Most High, our refuge.
