I will lie down in peace and sleep, for you alone, O LORD, will keep me safe.        Psalm 4:8,NLT

I cried when Mark first told me about the children in the Dom Dziecka home in Poland. This 19th century castle has been converted to a children’s home with playground equipment of the same period. But the thing that tore at my heart was to hear that at night the children are placed in their rooms, the place is locked up and the adult supervision goes home. These children do not have the comfort of knowing someone is there to hold them should they awaken from a nightmare or a thunderstorm.

Praise God we can take comfort in knowing we can call out to Him, even when there is no one around to hear our cries, He is with us. We are not alone.
