My Guardian Angel The Lord is my guardian angel He watches over me faithfully With eyes, I may not always see Him His presence is there constantly When I'm down, He's there to lift me When I'm happy, He sings with joy too When I lose my way, He guides me back I'm amazed at what He's brought me through Through highest mountains of rough terrain Through the soggiest valleys so low When I was ready to give it up It is then that He taught me to grow In the moments of time in trials When you didn't think you'd make it through When you're past all troubles and sorrow You see there's nothing He cannot do You might feel alone in suffering Feel no presence with you in the room When there's a moment to reflect back It is then you can see through the gloom We never think we could have made it In all trials we might have endured But with God, my guardian angel I'm constantly being reassured Ellie He didn't wait until the last minute did He? hahah... *Let God be truth and every man a liar* |

Rebbecca-- Your inspiration was lightening fast this time-and what a flash a brilliance was shone-I am persuaded that in several Old Testament passages that the yet to be incarnate Christ was prese-existent and active and also refered to as THE ANGEL OF THE LORD. Persuing such passages and making such connections makes for some interesting study. But I believe that you have here made the right & ultimate connection. Well done- your marvelous lead off makes this Challenge even more challenging!

Amen Rebecca! We are never alone in our suffering. He is always there. I love your poem and it is true, when I look back, he was there. I love this..There is nothing he cannot do. Thanks so much for all your insight and kind words and comments. You are a blessing to me. Sincerely, Rwood |

Ellie this came to mind shortly after. I am interested to see what the rest comes up with. Thanks so much Marcy so very true, even though we don't always know or are aware He is there through it all. Most of those times we realize when we reflect back. Thank you Bonnie, I'm glad you found it as such David that is exactly right, He was refered to as the Angel of the Lord. Though I don't know about the lightening thing. haha Aww, thanks R. That's such a sweet thing to say. You hit it on the head, for he is there, we just don't always realize that when we're so caught up in our tribulations. Not until we reflect back. God bless ya!

Dear Whtdove, So beautiful and inspiring. There is a line from a dctalk song that says, "I can't see the wind, but I can see the effects of the wind." How wonderfully blessed are we who know the Lord because we don't need to see Him to know that he is here with us. May He always reassure you. Bless you, Erie "The grace of the Lord be with you all." - Rev. 22:16 "Oh that I had wings like a dove! For then I would fly away and be at rest." - Psalm 55:6 Erie |
