Gets under your skin Finds a glass chin Self doubts Self inflicted chagrins
Weakness and frailty Are opportunities Not cause For tailspins
No need to crash and burn Take the lesson well And learn Next time around discern
Won’t be long before you can see it coming Doesn’t mean you can outrun a storm But by being prepared Be able to stand strong
Turbulence will come…take another dramamine pill Feeling queasy Pressure drops Feeling nauseous Feeling claustrophobic, paranoid, insecure, hyper vigilant over-cautious This time it was not a drill
Feeling two arms holding you up Body goes limp Vision grows dim Legs give out
Awakening at ground zero The smoke clears Twisted metal, acrid smoke Rubble strewn about
A winding narrow path is revealed straight ahead Leading to a fresh new dawn on the horizon Covered in dust and ashes Arising, moving without walking
Sirens give way To a beautiful silence Called to the light Now robed in white
No anxiety No doubts As your feet leave the ground No more fear of flying

| "A nightmare with sunlight on the horizon. Well done."-Lora
You hit the nail right on the head, such is my life at the present and more but i'm praying and i've been changed much for the better...still far to go. Many life changing potentially devastating trials right now, i got the absolute worst news i could have gotten today from the one closest to me and i'm fine. Oh it rocked me, it shook me i can't lie but when she told me a tremendous pain in my chest (heaviness the past few days that i almost went to the emergency room over, it felt like my heart was on fire) just vanished, praise be to God! He prepares us for pain sometimes by letting us feel the pain that is impending. It is like taking a cold shower before jumping into a swimming pool and thereby lessening the shock, Amen!? Thank God for His mercy! |

| Oh, I'm so sorry for your pain. My prayers are always with you. I love the outlook, though: "Trials are simply blessings we can't see yet." Beautifully put. |

| Thankfully the Lord is gracious enough to teach us the lessons we need, but only gives us what we can bare to receive, just like JoeT was saying. |
