my calmer of the storms...

yesterday was a really rough day for me...there are times in our life...i think...we may think we are handling all the juggling...all the pressures...all the noise...all the people and things tugging at us this way and that...all the stresses of life...

yesterday i reached my limit...

my breakdown moment came from my mom...a woman who loves me SO much...but a simple comment...in her moment of meaning well...that i am positive i read way more into than i needed to...but it was at this moment that i knew...that i once again...was doing too much...on my own...

and i found myself playing this song over and over and over again...

sometimes i forget...just for a moment...that He still has everything under control...and He is the calmer of my storms...

"Calmer of the Storm"
Downhere
When everything is wrong
The day has passed and nothing's done
And the whole world seems against me
When I'm rolling in my bed,
there's a storm in my head
I'm afraid of sinking in despair.
Teach me, Lord to have faith
In what You're bringing me will
Change my life and bring You glory
There on the storm I am learning to let go
Of the will that I so long to control
There may I be in Your arms eternally
I thank you, Lord,
You are the calmer of the storm.
You rebuke the wind and the waves
Once again I find I'm amazed by the power of Your will
'Cause I'm a child of little faith
I feel the wind and forget Your grace
And You say, "Peace, be still."
Teach me, Lord to have faith
In what You're bringing me will
Change my life and bring You glory
There on the storm I am learning to let go
Of the will that I so long to control
There may I be in Your arms eternally
I thank you, Lord,
You are the calmer of the storm.
Oh when the torment blows
The middle of the sea.
May I never trust, never trust in me.
'Cause there in Your arms I find
No tragedy.
There on the storm I am learning to let go
The white wave's high, it's crashing o'er the deck
And I don't know where I go
Where are You Lord, is my ship going down?
The mast is gone so throw the anchor
Should I jump and try to swim to land?
There on the storm, teach me God to understand
Of Your will that I just cannot control.
There may I see all Your love protecting me
I thank you Lord,
You are the calmer of the storm.
