Life's journey
by Don Sicklesteel © 2006

When life's situations come like waves upon my shore,
Each one seems a little different from the one before.
I enjoy the calm, when the waves are quite small,
But, when the storms come, it takes more than my strength, lest I fall.
I know that when the waves crash upon my shore,
That life will be different than it was before,
But it's alright if God shapes me so I'm not the same,
For change can be good, if done in His name.
It is comforting to know that when life is not fair,
You join me on that rock with your daily prayer.
You've blessed me beyond measure, more than you'll know,
So thank you my friend, for uplifting me so.
Now when those storms come seemingly without end,
I know I'll survive with God's help, and you my friend.
