Shade Tree Wisdom 7/23/09

Much thunder and lightning, hours of that, and not a drop of rain. Strange indeed are the ways of the Lord. But we are enjoying a little more pleasant day after that just the same. Maybe it cleared the air a bit.

O Lord,
Support us all the day long of this troublous life,
Until the shadows lengthen,
And the evening comes,
And the busy world is hushed, the fever of life is over,
And our work is done.
Then, in Thy mercy, grant us safe lodging,
And holy rest,
And peace at the last,
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, we pray.
Amen.
