Our Safety Net

The Lord is our safety net,
Without Him where would we be,
He watches from His throne room,
As we come on bended knee.

He delights in our friendship,
He walks with us every day,
If only we paid closer attention,
And thanked Him when we pray.

We may have many problems,
That turn our hearts away,
But trusting in His promises,
Will keep the devil away.

We seek Him when we're troubled,
We need compassion as we grow,
And He surely will help us,
His kindness to bestow.

It may not be tomorrow,
There's lessons to be learned,
We may have to cross a raging river,
That always brings greater concern.

But when we finally conquer,
The bumps in Life's road,
We will have our Savior's peace,
And gone is our heavy load.

He is our Rock, our Safety net,
His arms are open wide,
He invites us to come on in,
With Him, forever, to abide.

It gives me a warm feeling in my heart to write poetry.  I am a "Golden Ager" shut-in and writing keeps my mind busy with something I've done ever since I was a child, and it's my way of sharing our LORD with who ever comes to visit.  Thanks for reading my poetry - I'd love to hear your comments.  May God richly bless you.  Send emails to:   EvaYoung @ SkyWriting.Net
