How
could I have known
Of
the unintended consequences
From
a decision I made, an action I took
At
that moment
It
felt like the right thing to do
But
now, I see a ripple effect
Which
seems like a tsunami
Washing
away what I hold dear
Though
all around me, everything is slipping away
You
alone O Lord will never leave, nor forsake me
Oh
Lord, I cry out to You
As
the waves crash in, help me hold on to the Anchor of my soul
Help
me to trust You Lord Jesus, in the darkest night
Though
my words fail, the Holy Spirit intercedes for me
My
compassionate Savior prays for me and the merciful Father hears

Sometimes
its easier to see things in the lives of others, only to look back and see
similar seasons in my own life. When I
look back and see the trials the Lord has brought me through, I stand
amazed. Thank You Jesus for not wasting
one trial, or temptation or difficult season.
Thank You for the growth that can take place in the most difficult
circumstances. Though I can’t see the unintended
circumstances that may come from something I do or say today, You can. Help me to look to You, listen and obey You
as you guide and direct me.
