Lord You Are

                                                       

Over the years I have written a few poems,  though none lately.  As I was spending time with God this morning I expressed that thought to him, and as I sat quietly meditating on his goodness and glory these words came to mind.  

            Lord you are my morning joy

            Forever you are near

            You are a spring of water

            Gushing up, refreshing here.

            Lord you are my hiding place 

            In darkness or in fear

            You are my rock and my strong tower

            My Saviour oh so dear.

            Lord lead me in your mercy

            In paths so true and right

            Until I see you face to face 

            In everlasting light.

I hope this is, or will become, your prayer too.  For to know him brings such peace and joy into our life, such security when our world in shaky.

PRAYER:  Father God, may your peace flood my life today and I put my trust in you.

Be my rock and strong tower, my refreshing and my joy.  Amen
