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.

Solo? Never

By Patty Perkins

Psalm 42:8 “By day the Lord directs His love, at night His song is with me–a prayer to the God of my life.” (NIV)*

He directs love

Throughout the day

Prepares and strengthens

Come what may.

………………..

At night His song

A melody dear

Though dark surrounds

God is near.

………………..

A prayer to the God

Of my life forever

By day or by night

Solo? Never.
