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!

Trials are simply blessings we can't see yet, He has always seen me through every single one even when i wasn't aware of Him.
thanks joe!

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.
