WHERE CAN I FLEE?

 

Sitting in the corner

curled up into a ball

invisible to everyone

but the One who created all.

 

Pulling covers tightly

covering every inch

hiding from the day

He sees me where I am.

 

Closet doors shut out

the wind and storm outside

darkness overtakes me

from Him I cannot hide.

 

God’s presence will be with us

no matter where we are

we can’t escape His nearness

as we seek Him with our heart.

 

When you’re feeling lonely

or when you fear the night

take comfort in His presence

His love in you abides.

 

Even when the storm’s not raging

and quiet consumes all around

be still with God your Maker

He’s here with you even now.

Where can I go from your Spirit?  Where can I flee from your presence?

If I go up to the heavens, you are there;  if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

If I rise on the wings of the dawn,  if I settle on the far side of the sea,

even there your hand will guide me,  your right hand will hold me fast.

If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,”

even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day,

for darkness is as light to you.

Psalm 139: 7-12

 

From My Heart to Yours,

Marcie 🙂
