Thankful
"My suffering was good for me. For it taught me to pay attention to your decrees...." - Psalm 119
You have delivered me, again.
In my most tragic of times,
when all hope seemed lost,
when despair seemed my only friend,
as day turned to night
and weeks passed,
I waited, and kept my trust with you.
You have delivered me again,
kept your word,
showed me love,
and satisfied my soul.
I am forever thankful,
and lift up my praise to you.
All glory be to God,
Jehovah Jireh, my provider.

Post a CommentThis is beautiful James !!!!!!!!!!!!!
James...I have been there...in that dark place. Just when I think that the walls are closing in on me, God shines His light. It may only appear as a tiny pinpoint in a vast sky of darkness, but it is there. I am so glad that you have found that small point of light. Hold unto it with all your might. Take care.
