Exposition
by Joyce P. Hale

Saturday, March 17, 2007
Rated "G" by the Author.

Don't tell our God how strong is the storm;
tell the storm how mighty is our God....
except those times when darkness falls
and hopelessness on hearts do trod,
when life seems like a journey long
whose uphill road we trudge and plod.

But I digress, my faith is deep
and full and long; and does not sway....
except when prayers I deeply beg
are answered in some other way
that does not fill the need I plead
and leaves my life in disarray.

However faith and hope are strong,
and so I know whate'er should come
is planned by He who hung the stars
and set the ocean, moon and sun;
by He who loves the least of us,
whose greatest gift was once His Son.

A wonderful write and reminder for us all...for when we tell God how troubled and how big the storm or how deep the valley is, we are planting a seed of doubt! Amen sister we should rebuke and tell the storm what a mighty God we serve, with the mention of His name and the blood that we are covered by....the enenmy must flee...wonderful write, enjoyed this much!
Blessings,
Joyce Bowling

However faith and hope are strong,
and so I know whate'er should come
is planned by He who hung the stars
and set the ocean, moon and sun;

That says it all, doesn't it. Sometimes the power of God does seem to leave our life in disarray until we realize that in truth it has simply moved in a way unfamiliar to us. Maybe that is how he stirs our souls to pioneer the way to Heavens shore.

Beautiful write;
God Bless,
Lew
