BE STRONG - FAINT HEART ...... """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" WRITTEN BY S.C.MITCHELL MAY 2016 """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Be strong - faint heart - when storms are crashing round You - and remember Him - who sleeps unruffled by the lashing Waves - and know - that when He wakes - it isn't to a panicked Wondering - if He is able to abate the raging gale - but - with authority And faith - He speaks into the tempest's roaring - and bids it cease its angry Blast - and then - above the loudest crashing - He stills the sea - and Calms the churning water - and brings His peace and Rest to pass . How many times - have we been in such tempests ? - and Cannot see beyond our outstretched arms - and wondered - is There an ending - to this present danger - or an easing from those Things that mean us harm ? - Oh - trusting soul - hold on a little longer - Though all is darkness now - it must give way to light - so hold on fearless To the hand of Jesus - as God is working for your good - All through the night . Yes - only He can still the troubled waters - and only He can Part the mighty sea - so trust in Him a little longer - and don't give In to doubt and human frailty - for He has heard your cry for help - and Knows your desparation - however weak and feeble it has sounded in your Ears - but - be assured - the God - who made the Heavens - is the same God who calms the raging storms - and banishes Your fears . So hold by faith - the words that have been written - that say - You will not drown - when floods surround you - nor be burnt - when walking Through the fire - for God will be your Shield and your Protector - and He will bring You through to safety - by His Almighty Power - for He is mindfull of the smallest sparrow And we - my friends - are far more valuable - than they could ever be - so - Trust today - the God - who stills the waters - and believe - that He Will always be concerned for You and me . """"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" Some who are reading these words today may be going through really tough and fearful situations, but, I want to encourage you to put your trust in the One who Knows all about you , and also who can bring you through every situation however bleak things may seem at this moment . I pray Isaiah 43 v 2 will encourage you as it has me on many occasions . God bless and keep you Stella >< Vote for this poem
