When we are surrounded by fear and disaster,
He is our only hiding place.
When we can’t understand or figure it out,
He is our wisdom and peace in the middle.
When pain aches out of every pore of our bodies,
He holds us together and heals the wounds.
When sickness ravages our strength and vitality,
He allows us to rise above in spirit and fly free.
When rejection batters us to bits,
His complete acceptance never forgets or abandons us.
When we are all alone with no help,
He wraps his arms around us and holds us close.
When all hope seems lost and like a fantasy,
He reminds us that He does the impossible every day.
When we feel far away and stuck,
He is the Way through where we never thought there could be a way.
When we feel we will drown in the lake of our tears,
He makes the water cut through rock.
When we fear the darkness and the lurking evil there,
He brings Light blazing through and darkness must run away.
When you abide under the shadow of Shaddai, you are hidden in the strength of God Most High. He’s the hope that holds me and the stronghold to shelter me, the only God for me, and my great confidence. Psalm 91:1-2
