The Storm

Yesterday evening a storm passed through Enid.  At our house the lights went out once but came back on within 15 minutes.  The rain came in sheets and the wind blew causing the trees to sway.  Our addition was not much affected though.  I seen a few limbs down but the other parts of town were not so lucky.

Lots of trees were down, fences down and cars hit by those trees.  I went with another teacher to go meet new members for the upcoming Sunday School year in the fifth grade class.  Part of town was not really affected but the farther north we went we could see the damage.  We drove past yards full of trees and people trying to get it cleaned.  It was a mess.

Sometimes we face storms in our own life.  We might have a calm exterior but have storms raging or we may show the storm in our eyes.  We could be experiencing small storms or there could be the tree crushing kind of storms but whatever storm we face, if we have the right anchor, our Anchor will hold.  What storms are you facing?  I hope you know my Anchor!


i have journeyed
through the long dark night
out on the open sea
by faith alone
sight unknown
and yet his eyes were watching me

CHORUS
the anchor holds
though the ship is battered
the anchor holds
though the sails are torn
i have fallen on my knees
as i faced the raging seas
the anchor holds
in spite of the storm

i've had visions
i've had dreams
i've even held them in my hand
but i never knew
they would slip right through
like they were only grains of sand

CHORUS

i have been young
but i am older now
and there has been beauty these eyes have seen
but it was in the night
through the storms of my life
ohh thats where God proved his love to me

CHORUS
