Dark Days

YOU ARE THERE. (Why do I forget that in the darkness?)

Always before me. Always behind me.

Hand upon me. Arms encircling.

Love freely flowing.


Oh God I so often forget.

And the darkness overwhelms.

But you are light. And your light brings clarity to my darkness.



You have a plan. (If I could only remember.)

For my good. For my prosperity.

Not to rob or thwart. (As satan would have me believe.)


Oh that I may trust.

And trust again.

And believe.



Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; you stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes, with your right hand you save me. The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your love, O Lord endures forever – do not abandon the works of your hands.

Psalm 138: 7-8

Frost


Creative Father
Even nature tells story of my longing
That I may cling so close
That those near may never tell
Where I end
And You begin.
