The storms of life

I woke up yesterday morning just feeling overwhelmed with life and all that needed to be done and taken care of. The usual concerns finances, time and family where all weighing heavily on me. So I decided to put my thoughts to paper and see what truth God would reveal to me and as He as done a lot lately, I wrote this short poem. I just want to share it with you all and hope it offers some truth and encouragement as we travel on this journey of life.



"Life like a storm tossed sea does roar.

The wind, the rain and fog they do obscure.

I fear I faint and worry the cost

and grasp to hold that which is lost.

But one word from you and my heart is calm,

though the storms of life they do blow on."
(c)2005,Tom Allen
