Help & Shield

O Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield. 

Psalm 115:9

Sometimes I am

at the end of my rope

needing hope

barely holding on to a thread

and in my dread

I call out...

You are my help

Other times I am

being besieged

cut off at the knees

attacked by enemies

starting to bleed

I reach out...

You are my shield
