At Peace with God

Job 34:29

As God gives quiet, who then will afflict?
Having no quarrel with Him and no conflict;
He is my comfort during stormy times,
I feel safe from those committing crimes;
The peace flows through me as a river,
He ensures my warmth when I shiver;
Even when I am by myself, I'm not alone,
Knowing that God's compassion is shown;
Being a believer no matter at what cost,
I know that my goals will not be at a lost;
As one of His children He watches over me,
Guiding me through of where I can't see;
With His presence I shall never fear,
Knowing that won't give me a bum steer;
I feel His strength from the peace He bless,
As a reward of wrong doing when I confess;
God's peace rules in my heart everyday,
Proclaiming that it is here for to stay;
Nothing will disturb the peaceful calm,
As I continue rejoicing in my psalm.
