GOD IS NIGH


GOD IS NIGH

Psalm [MKJV] 34:18 Jehovah is near to the broken-hearted; and saves those who are of a contrite spirit.

It has been {decades] since I lost my husband. I have learned to live with the heartache, but there are times when I wake in the night and the loneliness is so devastating that I get up and go outside to be closer to my heavenly Father. One night, while sitting on my deck, I wrote this poem:

Moonrise
No matter what the clock may say
My night is over – sleep is gone
The lure of moon glow has called me,
I see the branch of a tree slide down the moon
And once again I know my world is right
God reigns!
The world turns and the moon rises.
