Peace in the Storm

"He is my Safe Harbor" © Gary Strader, 2009
When the storms of life are overhead,
filling you with a sense of dread,
like ocean's waves that across you roll,
feeling like you have lost control,
hopelessness can overwhelm you
with uncertainty about what to do.
Remember the One wind and sea obey
can drive your doubt and fear away.
When facing problems in your life,
look beyond the pain and strife,
lift your eyes up from the storm
to find a place that's safe and warm,
set your mind on things above
to discover peace and love.
Remember that Jesus calmed the sea,
this peace He offers to you and me.

Love this poem! "set your mind on things above, to discover peace and love."
The ONLY thing to do in a storm is to look up at Jesus -only Jesus. Remember, it was when Peter took his eyes off of Jesus, he started to sink. My favorite scripture is "You will keep in perfect peace all whose eyes and trust are on you." Isaiah 26: 3
Thank you Connie. God bless!

There is certainly peace in the storm when you can count on the Lord being there in the middle of it with you!!
