God's Presence

God’s Presence

I pray for peace, my worldly goal
That each and ev’ry sacred soul
Will feel the essence of your might,
To feel your presence day and night

Dear Connie, This is touching, moving, and sweet. It's an understatement for me to say that you "reached" me with it. Thanks sooooo much for posting it. Hugs, Paul

Enjoyed reading this one. Peace would be wonderful but we all know that until Jesus comes again that will not happen except moments of time within ourselves. Sara
