Attempting to Write a Psalm!

When darkness of the soul consumed me, when the Devil tried to use stress, fear and worry to consume me and drive me away, I made sure I was tucked safely in Your arms. For You alone oh Lord can deliver and protect me. It is Your name alone that causes Satan to tremble and flee. It is Your power that delivers us from trials.

I was scared and You were there. You answered my cry O Lord. You gave me peace in place of worry. You gave me strength for the journey and family to help carry the load. I will praise You, even in the darkness, for You provide the only light.

Nothing is beyond Your power. Nothing is too difficult for You to accomplish. What seems like a major hurdle to us, is just a stepping stone for You. You know the way, and You promise to guide us, we just have to listen and follow.

When life threatens to overwhelm me, when I am sinking in the quicksand of stress You are the lifeline. You teach us and guide us, and through the trial we become stronger and even more dependent upon You and Your amazingness.

Thank you Lord, for always loving, guiding, sheltering, protecting and saving us. Thank you for forgiving us, each and every time we sin. Thank you for being You.

Amen.
