WIND

Snippet

A part of us feels as if something is spiritually wrong with us when we experience circumstantial uncertainty.  But that is precisely what Jesus promised us when we are born of the Spirit and start following him. Most of us will have no idea where we are going most of the time. But circumstantial uncertainty also goes be another name adventure.  Wild Goose Chase Mark Batterson Pg 2

Scripture

When a gentle south wind began to blow, they saw their opportunity; so they weighed anchor and sailed along the shore of Crete. 14 Before very long, a wind of hurricane force, called the Northeaster, swept down from the island. 15 The ship was caught by the storm and could not head into the wind; so we gave way to it and were driven along. 16 As we passed to the lee of a small island called Cauda, we were hardly able to make the lifeboat secure, 17 so the men hoisted it aboard. Then they passed ropes under the ship itself to hold it together. Because they were afraid they would run aground on the sandbars of Syrtis, they lowered the sea anchor[b] and let the ship be driven along. 18 We took such a violent battering from the storm that the next day they began to throw the cargo overboard. 19 On the third day, they threw the ship’s tackle overboard with their own hands. 20 When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope of being saved. Acts 27:13-20

Oh, my God, I think I’m lost at sea

These silent waves are my company

And, I lost the line between the sky and sea

I’m wondering will the wind ever come for me.

Yeah.

‘Cause I don’t know, I don’t know where I am

Can you tell me, will I break or will I bend?

Will the wind ever come again?

I feel the sun coming up, rising from the east

I see the empire falling to her knees

I lost the line between her and me

My troubles are gone if the wind ever comes for me.

Yeah.

‘Cause I don’t know, I don’t know where I am

Can you tell me, will I break or will I bend?

Will the wind ever come again?

I dreamed I found the shoreline

You’re standing there

I dreamed I found you waiting.

You were waiting for me, waiting for me.

I try to kiss the emptiness,

I lost the line between the sky and sea

I feel the sun coming up, coming up, coming up, coming up

And I don’t know, I don’t know where I am

I will break or I will bend

Will the wind ever come again?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
