The Lord Surrounds Us
We too often allow life’s struggles to surround us while we neglect the one who created us, the one who guides us, the only one who can protect us from the buffeting squalls of life.
The Surrounding
Those who trust in the Lord are like seeds on the heavy wind.
They know the Creator will bring them to a fertile place of rest.
The Lord surrounds the faithful as surely as the waves return to shore.
God will keep their land safe from the withering sun and not permit their fragile shoots to be washed away before they take root.
The Lord will not disappoint their fragile hope.
Reward, O Lord, those who listen to the gentle voice in the turbulence of life’s storm. Reward those who hold fast.
Peace be upon those who put down firm roots in God’s loving grace.
