God Is In Control - 1

When life brings you to a place Where pain and sorrow you must face Listen to the wind and rain, leave a smile From the stardust thoughts that whisper Grace across your soul, lighting the way So you can know how to let go of your tears When life leaves you feeling sad And nothing on earth feels quite this bad Breathe a promise into the sand and sea Lavender hues of promise and prayer Soothing away all the worries you’ve had And reminding you to always listen and care When life brings you flavors of anger and hate Laugh at these moments that are your sure fate Lighten your heart with moonlight dreams And caress the kindness written on the night Painting the stars in a dazzling mystery Filled with silent inspirations that sigh with wonder When life publishes poetry through the air Caressing your naked fancy with a sense so rare Sunshine and butterflies – birds that haunt With their songs so alive, colorful and bright Leaving music that peppers thoughts with calm Flavors so soothing they linger on and on When life darkens your faith and dims your dreams Awakening the apprehension with trouble that screams Rousing the sense of yearning within an anxious soul Delivering suspicion and fear, leaving hearts aware That even in the greatest moments there are silhouettes Shaded in dread, fretting and distress – unease and unrest When life sounds like thunder beating against your hope And you can’t find a way through the struggles to cope Know that God is with you, a flicker of courage in the dark Preparing you for the day when you’ll see this effort As merely a battle that was meant to teach you how To learn and grow, to know – you can always rely on God The truth of His love is beyond explanation His love is alive, like the joy I feel on the inside When I sense His gentle kiss on my open heart And long for the still, calm touch of His hand When He traces a path through my crimson veins Into my laughter, my life, my love – into my soul Where God is in full control!
