From Psalm 34:4: I sought the Lord, and He answered me and delivered me from all my fears.”
In midst of dark wilderness
Lost, yet seeking His cover
Praying for Father’s response
Forgiveness whitens sin’s color
Life’s journey shall remain hard
Moral compass guides each heart
Praising Father’s steadfast love
Shallow hope finds blessed restart
Ember of faith’s glowing light
Mercy shared from Heaven’s voice
Treasuring Father’s wisdom
Holy Spirit guides every choice
Righteousness conquers darkness
His answers more clearly seen
Walking in Father’s refuge
Grace, flowing with truth, intervenes
Rescued from evil’s shadow
Faith growing, no longer crushed
Breathing through Father’s spirit
His Son’s promised peace, never hushed
From Matthew 3:17: “And a voice from the heavens said, ‘This is My Son, the Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.'”

On our own, we can accomplish nothing. But with God, we have access to power beyond our comprehension.
From John 15:4-5: “Abide in Me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who abide in Me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from Me you can do nothing.”

From Psalm 25:4-5: “Make me to know Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths. Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; for You I wait all day long.”
Day to night . . . night to day
Praying for His guidance
Looking to God above
Trusting His every breath
Darkness absorbs His love
Lighting path of wisdom
Teaching His righteous way
Finding strength in God’s Word
Thankful, kneeling to pray
Forgiving transgressions
Walking toward His grace
Keeping God’s covenant
Humbleness fills heart’s place
Unshackling sinner’s chains
Living under God’s peace
Replacing mind’s worry
His love shall never cease
Believing in God’s Son
Accepting Him as Lord
Tasting redemption’s joy
Deliverance restored
Night to day . . . day to night
From Psalm 25:20-21: “O guard my life and deliver me; do not let me be put to shame, for I take refuge in You. May integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for You.”
