STORYTELLER
Situation and Circumstance
Walking through a storm feeling afraid
On that very day, I was among a storm full of lightning, Thunder, winds and pouring rain
It felt like Heaven’s rage on the Earth
It came to mind a cleansing
Being in the middle with no shelter to run to nor go under
I felt danger
A voice unspeakable, but knew it was far away and said “Don’t be afraid I won’t harm”
It was a voice certainly wasn’t human, but there was a message
Heaven’s calling
I knew the storm I had to go through and withstand
A God’s kingdom test
The outcry of mysterious
The mind seemingly just being curious
Lightning flashed and the Thunder continued to crack in echoing distance sounds
Inner and enter felt like a rush
All I could do was just hush and be silent
I saw numerous lightning bolts simultaneously being everywhere at the same time in streaks
I witnessed it all
It seemed like a reminder in never be afraid, but always assured
Soulful overcast, but never alone
When I finally got home, my Mother asked me how did I make it through the storm?
She was worried, but saw my face showing inspired
My response, God has ways and understanding becomes education
Lesson never forgotten
Able to weather any storm being an actual storm or storms of life.
