Like an Anchor

I have set the Lord continually before me; 

because He is at my right hand, 

I shall not be moved.

Psalm 16

Sometimes, that is all I need to know.

There are times I find myself

getting caught up in the swirl of life.

And I make myself stop and remember

that He is at my right hand.

I shall not be moved.

Let all my emotions do what they may.

I have set my will like an anchor in trust.

Emotions can make me feel like I am not in trust.

But my anchor goes beneath those waves.

And though I may be tossed around a bit, 

I shall not be moved from my position of trust.

God, I receive all Your mercy and grace

that I may keep my course.

I trust You.
