Dear Sunshine
I looked up one day and clouds were moving in. As I sat there somewhat admiring the beauty and embracing the challenge it began to rain, then pour and eventually it was an all out storm. I handled it "my way" by myself (after all who else do I have). My next step was to run for cover. however shelter was getting further and further away. My problems began to multiply as it rained harder and harder on my life. I finally thought: use the umbrella, but it was too late, The umbrella was ripped from my weak hands as if it were a popsicle stick. What do I do now? I know, I will use a lifeline. I'd like to call a friend, OH I do not have one that I can call! So I began to sing, the rain didn't go away but I sure did feel better. I felt like I was gaining strength and momentum. Then it happened; The winds in my life knocked me off my feet and I could no longer balance myself, there was nothing to lean on, nothing to grab and nothing to hold. I was alone. In my panic, I could not even think to call the one that has been there for me...Jesus. To tell you the truth I felt like he had left me too. How can I call someone who isn't there? This storm is so bad, the water pours from my eyes like a faucet, my body is shutting down, my mind has abandoned me and I wait, to drown. Praying for shelter and to be rescued. I have thrown out the lifeline, I have been defeated, I surrender...ALL
To be continued
