I will bless the Lord who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me. I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me.
– Psalm 16:7-8 (NLT)
YOU ARE ALWAYS WITH ME
A poem and essay by ILMA
When I am happy and victorious, you are beaming with delight
When I am confused and downcast, you give me insight
When I am grieving over losing someone or something
Your faithfulness and your words are so comforting.
I will bless you Lord, for you guide me even at night
When I am tired and have no energy to resist and fight
You are always with me, not matter what
Thank you for all the favors you grant.
I have married a man who is there for me always. Even though there are times that my needs are not met according to my expectations, his consistency is astounding. It sometimes becomes a concern because I am so creative and spontaneous while he is so constant and a stickler for routines. His stability brings security in our relationship. My spontaneity brings life to it.
The bible tells us how faithful and stable God is to us. He is always there for us. We ought to bless the Lord who guides us constantly even at night. He is our fortress and we will not be shaken for he is always there.
PRAYER
Make me present in your presence Lord.
