Invisible Shield
The Ashanti, of Ghana, say that "rain beats down
upon a leopard skin, but it doesn't remove the spots".
Methinks that right they are, if we imagine rain
as everyday challenges, risks and dangers,
and leopard skin as our inborn faith.
As long as we look upon God as our "shield",
we will always be "dry", as we walk in this path
that we call life; a journey with no end......
