NAVIGATING VALIANTLY AGAINST THE WIND The winds and gales are whipping around, Contemporary signs are colliding with Prophetic Lore, Events are unraveling just as the Good Book says, And we’re seeing things we’ve never seen before. The enemy is fuming in blustery rage, Exerting such ferocity in this final barrage, The unrelenting onslaught will soon conclude, Its vestiges relegated to an ephemeral mirage. Although our sails are tattered, they are still on the mast, We’re not giving up and we’re not giving in, We won’t be moved nor ever dissuaded, We’re NAVIGATING VALIANTLY AGAINST THE WIND. This voyage has encountered merciless storms, Multitudinous tides have been steadfastly braved, Our adversary has unleashed punishing torrents, But our expedition has survived each infernal wave. The penetrating rain has been incessantly severe, And our faith has been painstakingly tested, We know our Hope is upon the horizon, Still, there are seas to endure before we are rested. Although our sails are tattered, they are still on the mast, We’re not giving up and we’re not giving in, We won’t be moved nor ever dissuaded, We’re NAVIGATING VALIANTLY AGAINST THE WIND. The Season is now fully-upon us, Trying to engulf us within its tumultuous rasp, Yet we are totally safeguarded from Neptune’s wrath, Sheltered impenetrably within our Captain’s grasp. While treading water awaiting Safe Harbor, Conviction protects every believer from loss, Capsizing never even crosses our minds, Our Destiny was secured at the foot of the Cross. Although our sails are tattered, they are still on the mast, We’re not giving up and we’re not giving in, We won’t be moved nor ever dissuaded, We’re NAVIGATING VALIANTLY AGAINST THE WIND. Stay strong Brethren, remain faithful and hopeful, and persevere to the end! Humbly
