“Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet My unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor My covenant of peace be removed,” says the Lord who has compassion on you. Isaiah 54:10 The world is full of troubles, Causing our heart to fear. But God is there to give us peace, And wipe away each tear. When you are full of despair and grief, At the altar, these things release. God is there to bring relief And will give you peace. His peace restores our troubled soul, Though our circumstances remain; God quiets our anxious heart and mind, As He eases our pain. Lean into…

Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for Him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Ps 37:7 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” Ps 46:10 Be still before the Lord, all mankind, because He has roused Himself from His holy dwelling. Zech 2:13 Be still, don't fret When evil seems to succeed; Wait patiently for God to act, Thus from worry you are freed. Be still, calm down, And know that I am God; Though nations rise against Me, In the…

Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Matthew 5:4 “Blessed be those that mourn,” Preached Jesus on the mount, “For they shall be comforted,” Like an overflowing fount. He weeps with those who weep, And mourns with those who mourn; His promises bring comfort When we feel forlorn. Lean on a brother or sister, To sympathize with you. They will share your sorrow, And help you pull through. As you call to Jesus in your sorrow, Express to Him your grief; He will give you peace unending And bring your heart relief. Death is a natural part of life on earth. We’ve all been affected by it.…

Isaiah 32:17 The fruit of that righteousness will be peace; its effect will be quietness and confidence forever. Psalm 66:18, 19 If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer. Righteousness begets peace When we have no sin in our hearts; God honors our repentance With peace which He imparts. A by-product of righteousness Is a quieted soul, Because our focus is on God, We've given Him control. We're also filled with confidence, There is no need to fuss; No matter what the situation, It's in God we trust. So rid yourself of every malice,…

In my distress I called to the LORD; I cried to my God for help. From His temple He heard my voice; my cry came before Him, into His ears. Psalm 18:6 Dark clouds are over me, Causing me to grieve. Satan wants a hold on me, But in God I believe! Down on my knees, I pray to God, "Lord, pass these clouds on by." Then like a silver lining, the sky begins to clear- My God has heard my cry! Praise Him! Praise Him! For His unending love! God is my shield and protector, Watching o'er me from above. I wrote this poem many years ago after a…

Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me. By day the Lord directs His love, at night His song is with me—a prayer to the God of my life. Psalm 42:7,8 My anguished soul cries out to God, Deep calling Deep; I need Your strength, Your love, Your peace, Oh my soul to keep. My anxious soul cries out to God, Deep calling Deep; I need Your calm, Your peace, Your arms, Cause my soul to sleep. My disrupted soul cries out to God, Deep calling Deep; I need forgiveness, mercy, grace, Wholeness of soul takes sin’s place. When…
