Every morning, before I start my day, I open my Bible to read the Word. This morning I read Psalm ch. 9, and these words really spoke to me.
'But the Lord sits enthroned for ever, He has established His throne for judgement, and He judges the world with righteousness, He judges the people with equity. The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble, and those who know Thy name put their trust in Thee, for Thou, O Lord, hast not forsaken those who seek Thee. Sing praises to the Lord Who dwells in Zion! Tell among the peoples His deeds! For He Who avenges blood is mindful of them, He does not forget the cry of the afflicted.' vs. 7-12
The following is a picture poem I wrote and painted a long time ago. I have probably shared this before, but it continues to speak to me daily.

Dear Brenda! I enjoy your Christian poems very much! I invite you to watch videos in my cats' blog.
Dear Brenda,
Your poem is short and sweet, yet powerful at the same time.
I once listened to a sermon about how Satan is like a dog on a lead. He could only go so far, but as God holds the other end of the lead, so the adversary is restricted in what he could do.
Blessings to you and your family.
Brenda, your poem and your beautiful embellishments with your illustrations is a perfect prayer. Blessings always!

Hi Frank, yes Satan is restricted in what he can do, but we also have a choice in what we do. God bless, thankyou for visiting.
Hi Martha Jane, for some reason your post only showed up in my settings, not on my blog. So I have copied it onto my blog, that is why it shows up in my name. I think it may have gone into spam for some reason, I have had that happen before, but I don't know how to look into the spam section on my blog. Thank you for your lovely comment. God bless.
Thanks for sharing your beautiful poem/prayer with us.
Hi again Martha Jane, your post has finally shown up on my blog, late for some reason, so please ignore my first response to you. God bless you
Hi Great Granny, thank you for visiting , and for your lovely comment. As you can see, I am having some bother with my blog comments. God bless.
"a stronghold in times of trouble"
Amen.
Hi Sandi, He is definitely a stronghold in times of trouble. When we are weak then He is strong. God bless you in His strength.
Hi Brenda, Your post is just what I needed today as we are still struggling with the aftereffects of hurricane Milton and probably will be for quite some time. May God bless you.
Hi Anonymous, I don't know your name, but I am so glad that my post strengthened you in the Lord. I pray that you will recover what you have lost through the hurricane, and even more. All things are possible with God, even miracles - which I have experienced through Him. God bless you with all He has for you in Jesus. AMEN (So be it).
