Not much change

Not a lot to report different. Still laying low and waiting for a BIG change. I am feeling stronger, but I can't do much, get too short of breath, wheezy and cough.



Besides scripture, I have found comfort in poems and some of the good old hymns. My grandpa Sewell's favorite was "Till the Storm Passes By---I love it, too.



Mark 4:39

"And He arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea,

Peace be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm."



'Till the Storm Passes By



In the dark of the midnight have I oft hid my face,

While the storm howls above me, and there's no hiding place.

'Mid the crash of the thunder, Precious Lord, hear my cry,

Keep me safe til the storm passes by.



Chorus

Till the storm passes over, till the thunder sounds no more,

Till the clouds roll forever from the sky;

Hold me fast, let me stand in the hollow of thy hand,

Keep me safe till the storm passes by.



Many times Satan whispered, "There is no need to try,

For there's no end to sorrow, there's no hope by and by"

But I know Thou art with me, and tomorrow I'll rise

Where the storms never darken the skies.



Chorus



When the long night has ended and the storms come no more,

Let me stand in Thy presence on that bright peaceful shore;

In that land where the tempest, never comes, Lord may I

Dwell with Thee when the storm passes by.



Chorus

Till the storm passes over, till the thunder sounds no more,

Till the clouds roll forever from the sky;

Hold me fast, let me stand in the hollow of thy hand,

Keep me safe till the storm passes by.



What beautiful words!! I have said I have peace in the midst of the storm. He does

keep us safe till the storm passes by. Can't wait until that day when there are no

more storms!!
