Rainy Days... and who to lean on in the storm

I have a head cold.


               AND


It's raining and cold outside.
So much runs through my mind.
    Good, bad, ugly, what if's and what might be's.
I feel like crying and falling into a pity party.
Memories of old vices pop up like a snake out of the blue.


Thank God in this storm
and every one I run into for the rest of my life,
I know where to place my trust.
          I know who to call on.
I don't need a man, or a shoulder, or a drug.
I can simply call on Jesus' Name and He comforts me.


He reminds me of WHO I am, who HE says I am.
I can be comforted by the fact that He has given me so much.
I have friends, I have people who love me (near and far).
I have beautiful children whom God has seem fit to love and forgive me.
Pity, pride, selfishness... those are all straight from Satan.


I can relax and lean on God.
I can take time to worship our mighty Creator.
I can be thankful for all He has done and will continue doing.
I can try to be the obedient, faithful servant He has called me to be.




I will lean on Him in EVERY storm.
