Life is at times
A shipwreck in motion
In desperation
Cargo is being tossed overboard
The boat is creaking and groaning
Under the tremendous load
There are leaks
Waves are crashing over the sides
Amid the chaos and uncertainty
You’ve lost sight of land
You’ve lost
Everything
It’s tempting
In times like these
To question future purpose and
The beginning seed
Whose sin brought this storm
Upon you?
Peace and hope
Become an obscure and laughable concept
What can anyone say or do?
Nothing
There is nothing anyone can do
To renew what has been demolished
Only God can heal that kind of pain
Only God can restore
The Job like loss
Only God can take you
Safely to land
With newfound hope
And resilient peace
Faithful Lines
