We are still traveling in West Virginia and I have little time to write, but here is a brief meditation and prayer based on a portion of Psalm 18.
The Lord Praised for Giving Deliverance.
Read Psalm 18 (esp. 1-3, and 25-29)
An Offering for The Poetry Project
Our Stronghold in the Darkness
O LORD, my strength and rock,
My fortress and deliverer,
My God and refuge,
My shield and salvation,
What stronghold is better than You?
You are the One who is worthy of praise.O Strong One,
Make me a deep well of kindness;
Make me an overflowing river of mercy to others.
Make me a gusher of smiles and mercy,
…… a living stream of life to the thirsty.
Make me a light to the hopeless,
. and a healing balm to the broken.
Make me a finely sensitive detector
. that my mouth would only speak good
. to the hurting travelers on my path.Make me a pillar of strength to the sorrowing.
Make me a support to the stumbling.
Make me a shepherd like You
. that I might know You
. and Your kindness.
Illumine my darkness that I might be a light
……. calling Your people to glory.
Go to Psalm 19
