Wildflower at my grandma’s
I’m to fear no evil in this world,
Since You make it all Your footstool;
I await the day when Your plans are unfurled,
And You, King of Kings, on Your throne forever, rule.
It’s an uphill battle and I’m losing ground,
Hide me in Your strong wing’s shadow
So that I may be safe and sound.
Hug me and never let me go!
Hold me in Your loving arms,
Protect me, even if it is from me.
Don’t let anyone bring my soul harm,
But if trials come, let it bring glory to Thee.
As long as You, my Lord, are walking beside me,
I shall try my best to fearlessly follow You;
Please, Jesus my Savior, abide in me,
So that Your will I may do!
And David himself saith in the book of Psalms (Grace’s note: Psalm 110:1), “The LORD said unto my Lord, ‘Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool.’ ” Luke 20:42 – 43
Be merciful unto me, O God, be merciful unto me: for my soul trusteth in Thee: yea, in the shadow of Thy wings will I make my refuge, until these calamities be overpast. (Psalm 57:1)
Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of Thy wings… (Psalm 17:8)
Because Thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of Thy wings will I rejoice. (Psalm 63:7)
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28)
If ye abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. (John 15:7)
Another poem I found in my drafts that I never posted. This one from July of last year. 🙂 And so is the photo. That was taken with my old camera if you can believe that. 😅
Oh, I really like this poem! It’s beautiful!

Wonderful thoughts and so true,,” Protect me, even if it is from me”…. I thought this was something I went through alone. I guess God has given us mortals more in common than I first thought. Thank you Grace and well done!
