The Peace of God

Written By Scott L.

When My Heart Grows Troubled and Weary,

Worn and tire.

I drift away—

Far, far away

From the distant shore.

Yet He is near,

Forever near,

And I call upon the Lord.

Walking on water,

He comes to me—

In the storm.

And the peace of God surrounds me,

Like the river of fire

That circles His throne,

From which flows

The crystal-clear water of life.

He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood,

And on His robe

And on His thigh,

This name is written:

"King of kings and Lord of lords"

(Adapted from Revelation 19:13, 16, NKJV)

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
