Sometimes He Calms the Storm
lyrics by Tony Wood and Kevin Stokes
All who sail the sea of faith
Find out before too long
How quickly blue skies can grow dark
And gentle winds grow strong
Suddenly fear is like white water
Pounding on the soul
Still we sail on knowing
That our Lord is in control
Sometimes He calms the storm
With a whispered "Peace be still"
He can settle any sea
But it doesn't mean He will
Sometimes He holds us close
And lets the wind and waves go wild
Sometimes He calms the storm
And other times He calms His child
He has a reason for each trial
That we pass through in life
And though we're shaken
We cannot be pulled apart from Christ
No matter how the driving rain beats down
On those who hold to faith
A heart of trust will always
Be a quiet peaceful place
Sometimes He calms the storm
With a whispered "Peace be still"
He can settle any sea
But it doesn't mean He will
Sometimes He holds us close
And lets the wind and waves go wild
Sometimes He calms the storm
And other times He calms His child

How is your mom doing? I'll keep you in prayer. I'd ask that you'd do the same for me. I have to preach Sunday morning (literally.)
Hello everyone...again it has been awhile since I last posted. I really am very sorry...it seems this journal has been put on hold for a little while...I do try to update my personal journal every once in awhile...for those of you who know that link you are more than welcome to visit there to find out more as far as life and what may or may not be going on with my mom...
right now I have dropped my summer and fall semester of classes...I am going to be spending most of my time at home helping mom and going to doctors appointments with her...and then probably a few weeks out of every couple months I will be in california with family...for my own sanity i suppose...but also because I really enjoy being with them...
mom is doing kemo right now...she has lost her hair...she gets weak sometimes...and very out of breath...she does get a bit sick from time to time...but not as bad as it could be with the large dosages of kemo that she is receiving...they are hoping that this treatment is working, but they don't know for sure...and wont know for another 2 weeks or so...if it is working then we will continue with this treatment...if it isn't...then its back to the drawing board...because the cancer is growing so fast and spread so far...they really don't know if this is working...but we are really hoping it is...
anyway...that's about all i have to say for now...I love you all...miss writing...and thank you all for your continued prayers...and your lovely tags and comments

I know you haven't posted since June and I do so pray all is well with your Mom...Please know that I will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers...Take care my friend. God Bless.
