Do you feel the waters rising
That would try to overtake your soul?
There is one who will be there for you,
And will keep you safe in the fold.
No flood shall overtake you
If in his arms you remain,
He calmed yesterday's troubled waters,
Today, He can still do the same.
He still walks on the waters,
In the midst of all your storms,
And he still speaks "peace be still",
As he keeps you safe from harm.
Though life has many problems,
And everyone has cares along the way,
If we lean on the arms of Jesus,
There will always be a better day.

You Are Blessed!
If you woke up this morning with more health than illness, you are more blessed than the million who won't survive the week.
If you have never experienced the danger of battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture or the pangs of starvation, you are ahead of 20 million people around the world.
If you attend a church meeting without fear of harassment, arrest, torture, or death, you are more blessed than almost three billion people in the world.
If you have food in your refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof over your head
And a place to sleep, you are richer than 75% of this world.
If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish someplace, you are among the top 8% of the world's wealthy.
If your parents are still married and alive, you are very rare,
Especially in the United States.
If you hold up your head with a smile on your face and are truly thankful, you are blessed because the majority can, but most do not.
If you can hold someone's hand, hug them or even touch them on the shoulder, you are blessed because you can offer God's healing touch.
If you can read this message, you are more blessed than over two billion people
In the world that cannot read anything at all.
You are so blessed in more ways than you may even know.
Pass it on to someone else today.
