MY PSALM I see You in the face of a child A face radiant in Your Splendor I praise you for this small image of You You are the Creator Who fashioned this icon I praise You in the morning when I rise O praise You, for You are worthy You are my Rock, my solid foundation I will offer praise to You all the day long I will magnify the Lord! Thus, I shall be saved I sing praises unto You Praises of long ago as sung by weary travelers As they trudged on to their destination I will cast all my cares upon You For I know You can handle them You are the epitome of a love so strong So strong, it defies definition Yet, it is a gentle love that calms fear A love that creates trust, seals bonds A love that brings contentment out of chaos I will call upon You, Lord, and You will hear me I praise You for Your small, still, voice It is a voice that soothes, and brings relief There is none to whom You can be compared You are the One and Only True God Therefore, I offer up my praise to you You are my shield, and with You, Satan has no power, no control Thus, I am under Your guardianship My soul doth pant after You You will come to my rescue Under the shadow of Your wings, I will be safe! Praise the Lord, all ye nations! Praise Him, all ye land! 19 September 2019 for the Write A Psalm poetry contest sponsored by Regina Riddle

When I wrote this a few days ago, thoughts of you entered my mind. Your pen name is like the weather here has been extremely warm and sunny, but I still found time to Smile. Thanks for your sweet comment and your loyalty as a friend across the miles.
