I thought I could sail,
and coast along the way
until I got caught
in a storm the other day.
I wasn’t really ready,
for the tempest ahead of me
for these once calm waters
were becoming an angry sea.
As the sea began to churn,
I saw I wasn’t going anywhere
so I threw in my anchor
knowing I had to prepare.
I clung onto my faith,
prayed with all my might
I hung onto every promise
He’d guide me in His light.
As the waves tossed and turned,
I gathered up my trust
quoted from the Scriptures
with each and every thrust.
When the storm was finally over,
and I was safely at the dock
I was glad that I set my anchor
to the One I call my Rock!

“Which hope we have as an
anchor of the soul,
both sure and stedfast:”
