He holds the sky

He formed the clouds within His hand 

He holds the sky

and sea 

The very hand that holds the world-

it cradles

you and me 

And when the distant storm clouds bring 

the threat of thunder

and rain

In the shelter of His mighty wings

we can find peace 

once again 

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty-

Psalm 91:1

I have always loved a good storm!  I watch the sky in absolute amazement… the clouds swirling, the wind howling…it is truly a marvelous site.  Weather patterns can be so unpredictable, and yet even when a storm comes- our daily routines still goes on.

He reminded me this morning that sometimes life is like that, too.  Many times we experience circumstances and storms that seem completely out of our control.  And yet, He is Lord of ALL creation, and He will be faithful to lead us through.

For the life of every living thing is in his hand, and the breath of every human being.  Job 12:10 

He made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed.  Psalm 107:29

Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.        Deuteronomy 31:6

The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him. Nahum 1:7
