Beata Agustin Poet Tetractys

Bliss of Peace

Bliss
grips heart
midst God's peace*
keeping my sail…
Divine presence prevails, conquering fears.

In Christ's care of gracious goodness-bounty
journey is safe...
His voice shuts
great waves
blows.**

*Ephesians 1:2 Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

**Matthew 8:26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
