TILL THE STORM PASSES BY
December 14, 2021
Good morning to all! I haven’t posted for a while because I was reviewing all options available due to the ongoing censorship on FB. I suspended my account on Tuesday after notifying all my friends and friends in name only of my intentions.
I’m deeply saddened that many ministries are still on FB mainly because of the livestreaming function. Many have made no backup plans to carry on their ministries should they be the next group censored. Equally troublesome is the CCP’s influence on FB decisions. We all know how persecuted the church is in China.
As we navigate the storm that is upon us, I’m reminded of a song my cousin and I used to sing. Here is the lyrics:
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 till the storm passes by
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 of 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
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
When the long night has ended and the storms come no more
Let me stand in Thy presence on the bright peaceful shore
In that land where the tempest, never comes, Lord, may I
Dwell with Thee when the storm passes by
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
