Happy are
the people whose strength is in You! whose hearts are set on the pilgrims’ way.
Psalm 84:4
For my
part, I will sing of your strength; I will celebrate your love in the morning;
For you have become my stronghold, a refuge in the day of my trouble. To you, O
my Strength, will I sing; for you, O God, are my stronghold and my merciful
God. Psalm 59:18-20
I woke up as usual
this morning, without the alarm. Four o’clock it is. I lay there is the dark
stillness spinning gently around my head. And in the distance, deep within my
heart, I heard a song, a chorus over and over: torre fuerte es el nombre del
Señor. Torre fuerte es el nombre del Señor.
A
song that I haven’t really thought about for ever so long. That little chorus
was the background track of my over-the-top crazy Rancho La Argentina world…
the volunteers, the villages, the broken well pumps and rattlesnakes in every
corner… and three beloved tousled-headed daughters, one of whom, Bam Bam Dre
determined to save the cattle by stomping on all of the locusts with her
pointy-toed cowboy boots.
A
strong tower is His name. To Him, and to Him alone will I run.
