And in that solemn thought, this words came to me like a song, a psalm of hope for my soul. I wanted to share this with you.

ReplyDeleteThe Lord is my fortress and His arm is my deliverance.
Though the world would sink in despair, I shall vanquish fear
For I know in whom I trust, the Lord God,
Source of all courage, source of my true strength.

The Lord Omnipotent shall watch me evermore.
O be still my soul, rejoice amidst the chaos in this world
For there is peace in righteousness and order in Zion.
Stand in holy places; never deviate from the course
The God whom you call your Father shall cause
All the heavens to open at the time you’ll need ‘em most
Cast your doubt, your fear; for in God, hope is not lost.
It helps calm my spirit tonight. God bless everyone. And goodnight or good day wherever you are.
Thanks Sophia for all you do; your service of bringing the sisters' thoughts and feelings together is a source of strength.
