All These Things
φύλαξ (phúlax) Protector, Sentinel, Guardian, Keeper
Got my coffee in one hand
and Your Book in the other
for the battles I fight
I fight with these
Long days bleed into late nights
but the Lord is my Shepherd
a glimpse of lush safe pasture
to lay on a clear sunny day
He leads me to still waters
by ceasing my salty rapids
I trust so completely that
the shadows shirk their pall
at the sight of His rod and staff
and I know that I'm safe
as I sit at the table that He has
made ready for me
the enemy stops midstep
the anointing oil
on my head trickles
down my hair into
my cup of Light
and blinds them
so that they can see
that I can't be diverted
from the path that
He gave me a map to.
I'll stay at His house
Forever.
Amen.

"Amen" means "truly", "verily" or "so be it" in both ancient Hebrew and Greek. When we say "Amen", we are proclaiming it to be so. The intentional last word in the Bible.
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.”
Revelation 22:21 NKJV
