Sometimes our life is heavy
burdens great to bear
Then the Lord comes sweeping
our battles He does share
He picks us up and holds us
deep within His love
Wraps us in His arms
and carries us above
What wondrous joy we find there
when in His arms we nest
The peace and love o'erflowing
brings nothing but sweet rest
Thank You Lord for giving
Your strength and comfort now
Thank You for Your peace
that fills my soul some how

Chelle, love the title and the message of this post. Hugs.
The joy of the Lord is our strength, blessings!
Wow Chelle, this poem reminded me so much of Psalm 91...He shall cover you with His feathers...
I woke up this morning, and for some reason I had pictured God as a great Eagle, feircly keeping watch over His children...Your poem fits with that vision!
Oh, I need a bit of that nesting right now - and your post is like a warm hug from Him:)
