EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED - IT SHALL BE WELL. """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" WRITTEN BY S.C.MITCHELL FEBRUARY 2014 Don't give in to despair - my friend - however hard it may be Knocking at your door - get up - and throw wide the windows - and Pick your sorrows off the floor - then place those memories in a safe Place - until the storm has passed - and face into the maelstrom - with Its cold Nor'eastly blast - and - even though the vessel may be broken - And the cargo thrown o'erboard - take courage - for there's Land ahead - and God will always keep His Word . He has spoken - none will perish - He has seen us safe thus far - He is mindful of the current - and the lashing waves of fear - but He Says to be courageous - and to cast our cares on Him - as He still knows - How to get us safe to land - when we reach out in trust - and swim - or He may send angelic driftwood for us to cling on tightly to - Believing - without wavering - that He will Bring us safely Through. So expect the unexpected - in whatever shape or form - and let go Of melancholy - that would only keep us down - and - stay in the boat Together - that way we will not drown - then praise the Maker of the Circumstance - who includes us in His plans - and accept the way He leads us - with His Almighty hands - The storms will cease - The fear will pass - and all things will - turn out for our good - and May the Glory and the Honour - go to our Awesome God - who Freely gives us His Salvation - through His Son - Our Saviour and Our Lord . So - trust Him in the darkest night - or the fiercest Storm - and never doubt that - the God - who Is mindful of the sparrow - will Also bring us - safely Home . """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" This poem came about after I heard a sermon from Acts 27 . where it tells us how the Apostle Paul was heading to Rome , where God said he would go , but on the journey there was a great storm for two weeks , and just before the ship reached Malta it was broken to pieces .. However , all aboard with him were kept safe and landed on the shore . Sometimes we go through terrible storms ... but when God says in His Word that He will bring us safely through , He means it ... So if you feel like you are being battered right now and don't know which way to turn ...trust in Jesus ....He will not fail you nor forsake you ....and He will get you safely Home to Himself .
