My Beloved, a poem by Edith K Ochien’g
When the storms of life
Steer me to shipwreck
I hear God say to me;
‘My beloved, I shield you all day
You dwell between my shoulders’
When the bills pile up
And I can’t pay up
I hear God say to me;
‘My beloved, I’m your Shepherd
You shall not want’
When voices overwhelm me
And I don’t know who to trust
I hear God say to me;
‘My beloved, I am the way
The truth and the life’
When His hand is on me
And I question why
I hear God say to me;
‘My beloved, I chasten you
Because you’re my child’
When future anxieties
Unsettle my present
I hear God say to me;
‘My beloved, I have plans for you
For welfare, not calamity.’
