Anchor for the Soul

"What is the fixed point in your life that holds you?" 

~Pastor Larry Trotter, Church of the Redeemer

Hebrews 6:16-20

November 8, 2015

Submerged and lost--
At least it feels that way
When storms hurl rain
And waves toss. 

My deck's awash
And dark of night floods in,
Light quenched, all dim.
This, the cost 

Of forgetting, neglecting,
The anchor for my soul--
Hope that keeps me whole,
Not foundering. 

Hurricanes will lash
But my fixed point will hold
This anchor for my soul
Has sustained every blast.
