The One TruthThat Brings Me Peace

Poetry Sunday

“Keep me as the apple of your eye; hide me in the shadow of your wings”

“Păzeşte-mă ca lumina ochiului, ocroteşte-mă, la umbra aripilor Tale” Psalmi, 17:8

My Hope in God, stronger than a rock, as I truly believe

He is the Creator of the Universe

He loves us deeply and takes care of us in every moment

The deep belief humbles my heart in prayer, even in darkest times

My faith is a flame that keeps me alive

makes me win over everything

when things get impossibly tough

My faith is the only thing that will

have the power to save the world, one day.

I feel joy when I’m in prayer

I feel calm like a lake in May

I feel my heart grow wider, like a non-burning flame

I feel existence becomes larger

and all fears disappear, melting in the sun

of You

I am better, I am free, I am me

Every time I cry my soul to You,

Dear, wonderful Lord

Keep my feelings safe in your hands

Hideaway my heart, from those who unconsciously

will shatter it away

Hide me in your arms

Please never let me go

You are my peace,

You are what’s inside of me,

You are me

When I speak to our sweet Lord of Heavens,

When I give my thoughts to You, my every hope and dream,

My soul becomes the eternal flower of

Meditation and

Peace.

“Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”

Psalm 37:4, ESV
