WHISPERING

A meditation based upon Psalm 140

I need help

I feel like there are some out to get me

who are plotting evil

I hear them whispering behind closed doors

poisonous words

I’m afraid, and need your protection

from those trying to trip me up

with their traps

I want to trust in you, Holy One

Please, hear my cries for help

I know you are my strength

my protector

I know you will fight my battles for me

But, if you could please help me to overcome these guys

Don't even let them have the satisfaction

of succeeding with their plans

Show them who’s boss

I know that you will always protect my rights

and provide justice

So, I give thanks in advance

for what you will do
