Thought for the Day 2/22/2019

Friday Tale:

Life hangs by a thread.

A simple snap and we're dead.

All of our money, fortune and fame,

That same little thread holds it again.

We think we are secure in the strength of our might,

When we have not the power to even last the night.

Our fate and our destiny is guided for sure

By the One who gave the rules, we make the detour.

If only we realize it is not by our wits,

That we survive, even prosper, it is because He permits.

It's only a thread that holds us up

But a thread is like steel, when we've drank from the cup.

The cup of life made available to all

Hanging by a thread, yet secured from a fall.

~ A Mountain Wings Original

Because you have the Lord your dwelling place -

the Most High, who is my refuge -

no evil shall be allowed to befall you,

no plague come near your tent.

 ~ Psalm 17:5
