Turbulence

Turbulence

Working at this job is a battle

The constant ebb and flow

The slight jabs at my ego

Maybe it’s time to hop on a saddle

But with nothing lined up

My resume is not up to date

Why do I always hesitate

This skirmish is overflowing my cup

I can’t go

I must though

But how can I

Watch out incoming volley

It’s such a terrible storm

I don’t know how to weather it

Not even an inkling not a bit

Wait I hear something over the swarm

It’s not out there it’s in my head

Who is this telling me be calm

Who’s in my head definitely not dad or mom

It’s You I’m so embarrassed

Where has my mind been

I lapsed and didn’t rely

Jesus I’m sorry

I didn’t even try to pray or listen

My attention is Yours

I present to you me

Please help me I’m in need

You Who hold the key to all treasures

Thank You Lord

The volley is over

Calm has come in the door

Thank You my Savior O Living Word

Amen
