Surviving the Storm

The wind of surrender blew across the sea of the disheartened, attempting to sink the ship of comfort and contentment, without any regard to what lay ahead. The mighty sea of doubt tossed the ship to and fro as it struggled to stay afloat. Next came the heavy rains of renounce and give up, which threatened to bring down the sails of retrieve and recover. As the ship offered up support and shelter, in an attempt to appease the storm, it was met by the twin lightning bolts of forfeit and relinquish. But then, as the sun beams of love and dependability shown through the dark clouds of brokenhearted, hope and forgiveness calmed the sea. The storm had finally ended. P.R. Deremer
