The Storm Will Pass

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The storm has passed, the sun breaks through,

And all the world is bright.

The birds return to the clear sky

To dance in the new light.

 

It gives me hope, when life is rough,

That joy will soon burst through,

And I will dance in the new light

That only shines in You.

 

The storms are but a passing thing,

Though fearsome in their might,

They the will not last, they can’t withstand

The joy born of Your Light.

 

John 1:9

The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.

A Peaceful Day

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for this day of peace,

A gift that brought such bliss.

Lord, I am grateful for so much,

But right now, thanks for this.

 

I needed time to hide away,

Restore my weary heart,

And give my spirit time to breathe.

Tomorrow’s a new start.

 

Matthew 11:28

Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

Promised Land

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I cried a bit and then I smiled,

I picked up and fought on,

And now the chaos of the day

Is forgotten, long gone.

 

For I am where I need to be,

And, just as He had planned,

I’ve settled right into the peace

Of my own promised land.

 

It’s not the small house by the sea

That fills me with such peace.

Nor is it the calm in the storm

That brings me such release.

 

It’s not the moon’s soft reflection

Across the quiet bay

That reminds me tomorrow brings

A new chance, a new day.

 

It is the knowledge, sure and true,

That, wherever I stand,

He knows my name and I am His.

He is my promised land.

 

Numbers 6:24-26

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.
