Feelings are fragile

Like a small boat

In a raging ocean

We cannot control the weather

It can change in an instant

Calm sunshine can morph into enormous swells

With no warning

Long periods of darkness and rain

Can be broken immediately

By a ray of light

Piercing the clouds

But God is my keel

He keeps me from tipping over

God is my anchor

He lets me rest in peaceful waters

I serve a God who calms storms

And walks with me on the sea

I will put my trust in Him.
