Light: 1 John: Prayers and Poetry

                Light

                Constant protection

                His gift in all

                circumstances every day

                yet too often

                our weakness leans into

                yielding to fears.

                Constant light from

                His heart never falters

                covers us in His mercy.

Psalm 27:5: "For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock."

Protection: 1 John: Prayers and Poetry

Reading: 1st John 1:7: "but if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin."  

Protection

Thank-you, Lord, for Your constant protection in our heart and soul to keep us bound to You in all circumstances--every day--a gift of being with You.

Yet still we too often forget, or ignore, and then let our weaknesses take charge.

And bring darkness again.

Yet in Your grace You still keep each of us in Your light, no matter what.

Thank-you.

Please remind us to look at everything through the light and vision You give us daily. And please keep us walking Your path.
