2. The Rapids in the River I hear them approaching Lord; the rapids are roaring. Edging side to side, I desperately look towards my old favorite-avoidance. But escaping to the shore is not an option; I have put this off far too long, this time, I must get past them. Scarred and battered from the river’s roughness; I look up- I cannot do this with You. Cement my trust to each side; save me from backwards slipping, fighting twists and turns, tumbling over the same curves again and again. I dare not utter a word, my voice is gulped somewhere in my middle, but my heart is fixed on the promised calm up ahead. Certainly, you are my strength and my stability Lord. I could never claim faith to walk on water, I only ask help to stay put, that I might reach my goal intact and still inside the boat.

Cement my trust to each side; save me from backwards slipping, fighting twists and turns, tumbling over the same curves again and again. I love this, Lady. *S* And your need for enough faith to stay in the boat... how we can all identify... just would never have phrased it so well. *S* |

Actually she stole my line LOL, I can identify with this so much as I too have bailed so many times and on looking back I wonder now if it could have lead to smooth sailing. This was excellent. |

![]() (big hugggsssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, we could learn to walk on water but then we never really feel anything and what better way to interpret Him than by going through the eye of the hurricane and come out the other side? (sigh) This is wonderfully graceful, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story |
