WHEN THINGS FALL APART

Cyclone

In this world we are faced by many situations that can result in severe stress, anxiety, fear, anger, frustration, grief, hopelessness and many other tumultuous emotions. These feelings can overwhelm us, ruin our health, and diminish our ability to move forward.

But when we trust God and seek His guidance, He helps us make our way courageously through uncharted waters. He gives us his peace; a calmness and joy that knows no understanding, so that we develop a better sense of control over our thoughts and emotions, allowing us to make good decisions and move forward.

“The cyclone derives its powers from a calm centre. So does a person.” Norman Vincent Peale.

The Word of the Lord bids us to be strong and courageous as we face the storms. “Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6

In which storm will you trust the Lord for deliverance? Seek to have a calm centre and you will acquire the power you seek.

Bible Verse: “You are altogether beautiful, my darling; there is no flaw in you. (Song of Solomon 4:7)

The pastor invited members of the Men’s Fellowship (KAMA) to sing in honor of their departed friend. They strode to the front, about ten of them, quite energetically despite the fact that they were all elderly; late seventies and eighties. Then they belted out a popular song enlivened with a lot of action; steps, twists, jumps and turns. Wow. People clapped and sang along. It was so beautiful; there were tears in my eyes, and in those of quite a few others.

This occurred during the funeral of a friend’s father. These senior citizens had realized that age is just but a number and used their meetings to grow spiritually, physically and socially. Beautiful!

There is no beauty like the beauty within you. And it radiates and blesses others.
Is your beauty growing?

*****

“Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in being what they are.”
“Since love grows within you, so beauty grows. For love is the beauty of the soul.” Augustine
