Calm My Storm, Lord

Calm My Storm, Lord

After reading Mark 4:35-41, I pleaded to the Lord that He would…

Calm my storm, Lord. Please calm my storm!

The tears flow down my cheeks.

All hope seems to be gone forever.

I cry so much these long, hard days.

I literally cry creeks!

I want to trust and keep on hoping,

But nothing seems to be moving for my good.

Alls doors are blocked with obstacles.

I feel like everything You’ve planned is somehow stopping.

My faith is tested over and over again.

And I feel I fail every test You give.

Lord, there are times I don’t wanna fight anymore.

Lord, I find myself asking you “When?”  

How long will my trials go on?

How long must I suffer so?

How long, my Lord, how long?

How long ‘til the victory is won?
