The storms of life come
bursting through,
And we are tossed and
turned,
The heat of summer rages
high
And often leaves us
burned.
The quaking earth, the
raging sea,
The din of war and fear,
Reminds us that this world
of ours
Is filled with paths
unclear.
We want to find the easy
road,
So safe and so secure,
And yet we know, ‘tis just
a dream
For nothing is that sure.
Just when we think we’re
in control
The world begins to spin,
And we discover new events
That change the world
we’re in.
But still we strive to
keep things calm,
To stay on even keel,
Despite the fact that in
our hearts,
The surge of life we feel.
It seems the world is much
the same
As it was long ago,
But we fool ourselves if
we believe
That it is always so.
Each passing day brings
new events
That challenge what we
know,
And we adapt or fall
behind.
We choose to sit or grow.
Our growing is what God
suggests
Should be our choice in
life,
To seek to flow where
Christ leads
Through challenge, change
and strife.
And if we grow all through
our lives
Until our breath shall
cease,
We will discover that we grew
Right into God’s sure…
Peace,
