Psalms 139 : 9-10. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the utmost parts of the sea; even there thy hand shall lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.
The path I've come to you my Lord has been strewn with evil's ways,
Yet, even in the deepest of waters, my soul You possess.
Each move I've made right or wrong was known before I stepped,
and in my quest to surrender, you lined my walk with grace.
I've known the jagged truths flying interference about my heart,
but never have You let me fall without Your hand reaching out.
And now, as I soar high above mountains laid in my path;
You Lord, have smashed my enemy so that I may be grown.
For all I hold dear, You gave willingly upon that cross;
You are Salvation Lord, You are my stone.
~I can not be me without You my Lord~

This is a nice personal reflection on this passage from Psalms 139. It shows the providence and the grace of God which we have been blessed with. I was blessed by reading this, thanks for sharing.
You have been Hoodwinked today by the Poetic Bandits because WE CARE!

This was a very nice poem. I don't know, faith is something I've been struggling with and I don't really have God in my thoughts to often. It's a good reminder to have and it gives hope. Nicely done.

Exquisite Identity
Oh, my Sis, I love that last line and have made it my own as well. You have penned such beauty here and woven words with which we all can identify. I would not be who I am were it not for our Father and His Christ; for they knew who I was to be, what I was to do, before I was a thought in anyone's mind. Praise the Lord, They did with me as They did with you. This is a winner!
Much luv & hugs, SisBon
