God's Joy 2 from Psalm 127:1-2

Psalm 127:1-2

1
Unless the LORD builds the house,
They labor in vain who build it;
Unless the LORD guards the city,
The watchman keeps awake in vain.

2
It is vain for you to rise up early,
To retire late,
To eat the bread of painful labors;
For He gives to His beloved even in his sleep.
(Psalm 127 NASB)

Lord,
When You tell us
You give gifts
To those You love
Even
While they sleep…
What are You
Saying?

Are You saying
That Your love
For us…
NEVER changes?

Are You saying that
When good times come,
You love us?
When hard times crush,
You love us?
When easy times roll,
You love us?
When grief strikes,
You love us?

Are You saying that
Each…and
Everything we enter
We go in
Accompanied…
Preceded…by
You….and
Your love?

Are You saying that
We have NEVER been truly alone
In the dark…
EVER?

Yes…I think
You are saying just that,
Lord!
