Thoughts of Winter by Trevor Chin

How snow clings to evergreens
Even in the midst of the storm
Oh how I want to likewise cling to YOU
When the storms of life come, instead of
Following the wind, hold tight to what’s true
So many other ways to go
Other ways to follow
Life gets heavy, thick
Begins to become hard to swallow
Anger, pain, hurt, sorrow
Emotionless filled nothingness
Holds on till tomorrow
“Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty
Thus I fight not as one who beats the air�
It gets hard, but into the bottomless pit you stare
“But I buffet my body, and bring it to subjection�
When emotions get thrown at me
I turn my back in rejection
Show it no kind of affection
Praise God for subjection
“Lest when I have preached to others
I myself should become disqualified�
To He who is glorified, magnified
To His love which has been fortified…
AMEN
