Peace for Perilous Times

daisiesnfld: Peace for Perilous Times
.
The air lay warm and humid
Dense it clung to walls and floor
Arid odor of mildew and mold
Blackened window sills and doors
.
Throughout the house in chaos
The unwashed dishes and unmade beds
Gave homage to the lonely
Too frightened to raise their heads
.
Yet hope flooded all the window panes
Its color brushed the gazing flowers
And beckoned to the lonely
"Behold, God and His power!"
.
He gave assurance to the sparrow
Sent the morning's early dew
Filled with blessings and His promises
No less, for me and you
.
"Be ye not anxious or to worry
I am with you night and day
Never will I ever leave you
I am the light and way"
.
Love then filled this humble dwelling
Shining bright in every place
Inspiration and encouragement
Now comforted by His grace
.
Arise to meet the challenge
Turn back on doubt and fear that's brought
You closer to our blessed Saviour
And all the peace you have sought
.
Let it be a lesson to one and all
The lonely mute and deaf can hear
Be life chaotic or uncertain
Seek and you will find Him near
.
