Storms and Beasts

The enemy stands and mocks. He laughs and whispers, ever accusing. His time is short so he plans and he schemes, using his full arsenal of imps and demonic forces. The current struggle is nothing more than an illusion. You have shown me victory from your holy hill. Your holding the answer in your hand. You have spoken to me in the darkness of night. As I slept you have shown me winds raging, beasts lurking from the depths. Although I watched in fear as the horrors lurked and loomed about me, I was but a witness to them. They were not allowed to touch me. Although the dangers were very real, your hand, as a shield kept them from carrying me away. Now, as awake as ever I see it unfolding and I see no way of escape. My heart trembles and the familiar sting of defeat rises in my heart. Hopelessness rears its ugly head........and then.....You say..." I have shown this to you in advance..remember?" So I cling to your promises. SEEING no way out, but KNOWING you are making a way. The storms and beasts are but dust in your mighty hand. Shut the mouth of the serpent, let all the plans of evil men be thwarted.
