Lamentations for the Storm

Oh Lord, leave me not unto this fate. Let me not buckle under the winds that push my mind, the pain that stabs my heart and the burden which troubles my soul. Leave me not to the dark thoughts that plague from my flesh or the dark desires form the old man. Leave me not to drown in the unsettling sea of the world and the enemies attacks. Lord, let me not break, let me not fall, let me remember all that you spoke to me, taught me, from your word. Let me rely on you, let me worry not. Lord, fill me with peace, the peace of your will. Let me rely on you and not on people, on the creator and not the creation. Teach me patience Lord, teach me trust and faith, teach me to love you even more and to love like you. Lord keep me and have me need all strength form you. Not form my own self, my friends or anything else but from you.

Mark 4: 39-40: 39He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.

40He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"
