Peace Within

“And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns!”
— Revelation 19:6 (New King James Version)

Peace Within

The weather outside is bad today.
There is thunder and lightning and rain coming down.
Through the window I watch the trees as they sway
Some of the limbs nearly touching the ground.

I sit here alone in my living room,
Listening to the rain drops falling outside.
I feel so content I begin to croon,
And thank God for keeping me safe inside.

As the thunder rolls through the atmosphere.
And the rain spreads out like a tent
I have peace within and I have no fear.
For I know God reigns omnipotent.

POEM BY LUCY DEE (WRIGHT) LAPRARIE BASS
