How comforting to know…God…He is our covering, always! Let's Press on.


Poem Artwork

The winds assail…

relentlessly seeking to... tear

But, My Coat…like a bulwark

prevents the snare.

The gusts…how they howl and…

endeavor to bite

But, My Coat…is wrapped around me

tight.

The elements, so harsh, attempt…

to halt my destined steps

But, My Coat…protects, negating

its bereft.

Heaven Woven…

and layered with a lining, wrought solidly from…

Salvation’s Flesh…

its cloth is a compilation of  

Redeemer’s Inexplicable Love, that's entwined…

with His Mercy and Grace…so perfectly meshed.

A garment stitched and held together with 

His eternal faithful threads…

indeed, it was ‘made’ to endure life’s harshest weather

as…I dare to look ahead.

Yea, how utterly grateful I am for the covering of

…My Coat.

 

PS 48:14, DUET 33:12, PS 91:1-2, PS 46:1, JHN 16:33, MATT 7:25

Yes.... His covering (or coat as you say) signifies divine protection, provision, and authority, which offers believers refuge and peace amid life's uncertainties. It also reassures us that we are held safely in His care, spiritually shielded, and guided according to His perfect will, which allows believers to live with confidence and trust in His unwavering presence. Thank you for sharing. Kind regards.... rlc

This piece feels like a shelter from the onslaught of certain realities in this world. The “Coat” isn’t just a metaphor — it’s a living garment woven from God’s own protection, stitched with mercy, grace, and that inexplicable Love that we rely on in our storms. Each stanza turns the reader back toward the truth that His covering isn’t fragile or symbolic, but durable enough to withstand every gust that tries to tear at us. Fine inspirational work.
