Premium Member Staying Strong

Always expect the unexpected. 
Don't be shocked by a surprise. 
Sometimes our nonchalant complacency 
presents a new gift in disguise. 

The future we had planned for 
isn't always whats in store, 
but for each lost opportunity 
we'll find another door. 

We will find a way of coping 
when we thought we never could. 
What seemed at first so negative 
can be transformed into 'good'. 

The seed of faith grows hardier; 
the weakness becomes strong 
and soon what first seemed 'gloom and doom' 
sings a much more hopeful song. 

Inside each grey and blustery cloud 
there lies a silver seed of hope. 
It nestles in the misery and 
grows to help us cope. 

It blossoms into friendship 
we never knew was there; 
it blooms when people 'rally round' 
and show they really care. 

So, don't be shocked by life's surprises. 
Don't let them knock you to the ground. 
Let the bellow of the storm die down 
and hear the tinkling silver sound

Abstract

What is this I see this city paved in gold,
And silver gates align the entrance.
It's a story that never goes untold,
Even since we had our innocence.
Milk and honey is to crave your appetite
And angels sing gloriously.
It's just beyond the clouds as the birds take flight,
For the righteoous presides there victoriously.
Overseen by the Alpha and Omega's eyes,
Eye's of angels watches us from up above.
For he guides me through his land where his children lies,
And your wrongs can't be disguised.
For it is like abstract art in the nonbeliever's eyes.
Streets of gold and silver gates lining this kingdom,
Of snowy white grounds and it is just beyond the skies.
We seem to miss the big picture cause we are to busy looking at the small things,
The key to the silver gates and golden streets is faith in him everlasting.
