I took these pictures of my lovely bride when Marta Stephens and I took a walk on the southern most pier in the continental United States.  In one of them you can see the southern most hotel in the continental United States.  No, we are not staying there.  The southern most hotel has prices that are a little north of my budget.  I am told that in years past, a lot of influential and well known people came to this part of the Keys to get away from it all.

Being on the southern most part of the continental U.S. and the thought of people trying to get away from it all reminded me of David’s words in Psalm 139:7 – 8.  David speaking of the Lord says,

“Where can I go from Your Spirit?  Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend to heaven, You are there…”

David knows that no distance, no location, no problem nor any situation can ever separate Him from the Lord. The Lord is always with Him!  That is a comforting thought for those in a covenant relationship with the Lord.  We serve a God who is always with us and who will never leave us nor forsake us, no matter where our journey takes us.  We had another great day in Key West.
