Scared Stiff

there are those times in our lives when we are the most afraid a symptom of brain activity that tears our nerves to shreds in those times of misery when the future is in doubt we try to find some peace of mind looking all about while trouble speeds our way were looking for solutions before the fateful day when it comes the conclusion in this place and time is where i am right now i know God has the answer i just wish i knew how here i sit in my home just days before destruction i never felt more alone while waiting for Gods instructions in Him i'll put my trust each and everyday where ever this thing takes me i know it is His way i cannot see the future but i have seen the past i've seen a few disasters i look back now and laugh i've done this thing before i have to face my fears give up on the loneliness doubting God and tears no matter what the future if it's here or if it's there i know God is with me my God is everywhere He's giving me patience and faith for when i'm old things that now seem to me worth much more than gold a little more patience and a little more faith two things i earn while God has me wait with hairs turning grey my wisdom is found it took a lot of years for wisdom to come around there is danger in the future but i am safe and sound

How true that wisdomcomes late, so sad we go through all that just about destroys us. Iwehad taken life seriously and know how important God's instructions were I wonder how different it all would have been. Great descriptions on our helplessness. Luv, Lizzie

nothing to be scared about, sweet situation, just the machinations of 2012 gathering pace...but one should avoid becoming a passive observer in one's own life, we need to take responsibility for our own lives, that's why we've been given that wonderful thing called free will :-)
