The Steadfast Force Guiding Me

No one can see the steadfast force guiding me toward infinite peace, an untroubled and limpid sea... with glittering, foaming waves! Some call it faith, I call it strength; and somehow leads me to believe in destiny... that the spirit cannot be broken easily when the foundation is built on courage! I strum my guitar and sing Alleluia, and as I carefully walk...I can't ever stumble on a smooth road, where evil is not present... to give a sign of premonition to an ever-faithful! I go past the pear' orchards in a remote farm, and the pheasants sit in the golden branches; the fruits look so succulent inviting me to taste them, others have wished to savor such a sweetness! A surge of sublime joy swells inside like that of songs, and gracefully I sing them by allowing sustenance... the steadfast force guiding me to enjoy the supreme moments as if sighting a supernova, which will not lose its brilliance! An oath of obedience I have made to God, and being humble, I will honor Him repeatedly... in all kinds of prayers and proclaim Him Lord whose hand is the steadfast force guiding me!

Andrew this rings with beauty and truth. It reminds me very much of a modern "psalm" About your comment to me, you are better than me if you enjoy zucchini. I'd only eat it if it were fried. haha! I tried to choose all foods on my menu which I LOVED (but I was stuck with my one Z word!) And if you ever stop by, I have the best vegetable BEEF soup recipe in the world! LUv,Andrea
