About Patty Perkins

Unknown's avatar
I'm Patty, writer of the devotional blog, Beside Quiet Waters. I love writing, reading and taking long walks with my camera. I've been married to my loving husband for 40 years. We have two grown sons, two lovely daughters-in-law, and two amazing grandchildren. I am thankful for a place to share spilled ink, in hopes of encouraging others to find daily hope and inspiration in God's Word.

Psalm 48:3 “God is in her citadels; he has shown himself to be her fortress.”*

As morning sun awakens

then stretches through the day,

when light is shooed away by dark

may nighttime find you staid.

…..

A fortress of days gone by

a bulwark when afraid,

as you covered Zion long ago

Lord hover here today.
