Down the street from us is a gate that leads into a cemetery. Cemeterys here are like parks in the USA - people exercise there, have picnics, bury their loved ones, hold family reunions, sleep overnight at the grave site on special holidays, etc...
I enjoy morning walks there.  First view is of the mountains (Mount Apo and a few others.)  It is a visual reminder to me of my Saviour's love and care for me....even if there are clouds blocking a clear view of the mountain, He is always there - in every storm of life.  The visual reminder is His loving grace to me.
I lift up my eyes to the 
hills.      From where does my help come?
2  My help comes from the Lord,    who made heaven and earth.
3 He will not let your foot be moved;    he who keeps you will not slumber.
4 Behold, he who keeps Israel    will neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord is your keeper;    the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
6  The sun shall not strike you by day,    nor the moon by night.
7 The Lord will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life.




The other amazing thing to witness in the cemetery is how the graves are dug - all by hand - 
early in the cool of morning - spade by spade - earth moved to make room for the box and body of some family's loved one....


8 The Lord will keep    your going out and your coming in    from this time forth and forevermore.
