Psalm 91<\/b>\u00a0\u201cWhoever dwells in the shelter\u00a0of the Most High will rest in the shadow\u00a0of the Almighty.\u00a0 2\u00a0I will say of the\u00a0<\/i><\/span>Lord<\/i><\/span>, \u201cHe is my refuge\u00a0and my fortress,<\/i><\/span>\u00a0<\/i><\/span>my God, in whom I trust.\u201d\u00a0 3\u00a0Surely He will save you from the fowler\u2019s snare and from the deadly pestilence.\u00a0 4\u00a0He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield\u00a0and rampart.\u00a0 5\u00a0You will not fear\u00a0the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, 6\u00a0nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday.\u00a0 7\u00a0A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you.\u00a0 8\u00a0You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.\u00a0 9\u00a0If you say, \u201cThe\u00a0<\/i><\/span>Lord<\/i><\/span>\u00a0is my refuge,\u201d and you make the Most High your dwelling, 10\u00a0no harm\u00a0will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. 11\u00a0For He will command His angels\u00a0concerning you to guard you in all your ways; 12\u00a0they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. 13\u00a0You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent.\u00a0 14\u00a0\u201cBecause He\u00a0loves me,\u201d says the\u00a0<\/i><\/span>Lord<\/i><\/span>, \u201cI will rescue him; I will protect him, for He acknowledges my name. 15\u00a0He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. 16\u00a0With long life\u00a0I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Hebrews 12:1-3\u00a0<\/b>\u201cTherefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us,\u00a02<\/b>\u00a0fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.\u00a0\u00a03<\/b>\u00a0Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.<\/i><\/p>\n

John 3:11<\/b>\u00a0\u201cHe came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Hebrews 2:16-18<\/b>\u00a0\u201cFor surely it is not angels He helps, but Abraham\u2019s descendants.\u00a017<\/a>For this reason He had to be made like them,\u00a0fully human in every way, in order that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that He might make atonement for the sins of the people.\u00a018<\/a>Because He Himself suffered when He was tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.<\/i><\/p>\n

Psalm 34:18<\/b>\u00a0\u201cThe LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n

Psalm 147:3<\/b>\u00a0\u201cHe heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds<\/i>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sometimes I bleed<\/p>\n

Sometimes I am cut<\/p>\n

I stop and look to see<\/p>\n

How bad is the wound<\/p>\n

I see the attack<\/p>\n

I hear and see<\/p>\n

The slicing of me<\/p>\n

Pain explodes<\/p>\n

Somehow<\/p>\n

Fear is not a part of me<\/p>\n

Seeing the gaping wound<\/p>\n

I am not afraid<\/p>\n

The wound<\/p>\n

Even as the blade is<\/p>\n

Finishing its cut<\/p>\n

I quickly see<\/p>\n

His hand<\/p>\n

It follows the blade<\/p>\n

Not one drop<\/p>\n

Of blood<\/p>\n

Issues forth<\/p>\n

For directly behind<\/p>\n

The blade<\/p>\n

Is His healing hand<\/p>\n

I fear not<\/p>\n

Yes the cut was made<\/p>\n

As I have been<\/p>\n

Previously cut<\/p>\n

Yet because of have been<\/p>\n

Because of that experience<\/p>\n

Knowledge of what follows<\/p>\n

Is within me<\/p>\n

It reminds me<\/p>\n

That I may be cut<\/p>\n

But I will never bleed<\/p>\n

Wounds will happen<\/p>\n

Healing follow with it<\/p>\n

I have no blood to shed<\/p>\n

His blood was already<\/p>\n

Shed for me<\/p>\n

Healing is not newly<\/p>\n

Needed<\/p>\n

It has never left me<\/p>\n

Yes, I can be cut<\/p>\n

Pain will happen<\/p>\n

Never will it last<\/p>\n

My God is with me always<\/p>\n

Thought I am hurt<\/p>\n

His life gives me life<\/p>\n

Though I am wounded<\/p>\n

Hope never leaves me<\/p>\n

Because He<\/p>\n

Is always with me<\/p>\n

Whom shall I fear<\/p>\n

What shall I fear<\/p>\n

S will sometimes<\/p>\n

Hurt me<\/p>\n

But the cure comes<\/p>\n

Quicker every time<\/p>\n

For I know who is<\/p>\n

My Help<\/p>\n

The Lover<\/p>\n

Of my soul<\/p>\n

He who loves me<\/p>\n

Beyond any other<\/p>\n

Is He who watches<\/p>\n

Over me and is<\/p>\n

My Protector<\/p>\n

And Provider<\/p>\n

Thank you<\/p>\n

Father,<\/p>\n

Son,<\/p>\n

And Holy Spirit<\/p>\n

To love is<\/p>\n

The greatest blessing<\/p>\n

With the greatest risk<\/p>\n

As you have done<\/p>\n

And do<\/p>\n

May I be like You<\/p>\n

Trusting You in all ways<\/p>\n

Knowing with the<\/p>\n

Risks From Without<\/p>\n

Is the love<\/p>\n

And the healing<\/p>\n

From within<\/p>\n

Praise you Lord<\/p>\n

Thank you Lord<\/p>\n
