Dec. 7.98: Light For The Day - "Hope For The Flower"

"The LORD watches over the righteous 
and listens to their cries; ...
The righteous call to the LORD, and he listens;
He rescues them from all their troubles.
The LORD is near to those who are discouraged;
He saves those who have lost all hope."
-- Psalm 34:15,17,18 (TEV)

"Hope For The Flower"

I am surrounded by weeds, 
trying to choke me out...
My colors often fade,
and my petals often wilt..

At times when I am weak,
My heart becomes broken...
I need love and support,
Oh God give me strength...

I pray to the Lord,
Get me through this day...
All I can do is pray to Him,
That soon I will become...
That radiant flower to bloom,
For God each and every day!

"You are my hiding place;
You will save me from trouble.
I sing aloud of your salvation,
because You protect me."

-- Psalm 32:7 (TEV)
