For the Lord God is a sun and shield;
    the Lord bestows favor and honor.
No good thing does he withhold
    from those who walk uprightly. Psalm 84:11 (ESV).

 At a time when least expected,
At a time when least deserved,
It comes and I feel protected;
Grace and mercy steadfastly served.
 
Awash in the presence of this moment,
Approaching bowed on bended knee;
Love and forgiveness encircle me.
 
It’s always when least expected,
And always when least deserved;
Prompts that I am protected with
Grace and mercy lovingly served.

undefined In the heat of a moment, or when I’m not thinking as I should, grace and mercy come to remind me, that I am not in this life alone. God is my sun and shield, and by His grace I am called to a higher place, His love. Have you experienced those times when His gentle grace has given you a moment to respond with gentleness?

Blessings,
