Hearts So Pure

#13 Motivational Series Thank you to all of those visiting my motivational series and leaving kind comments Hearts So Pure I walk with the sun on my back, following my shadow Across icy patches, eyes watering, from cold wind as I go By snowbanks above my head on the sides of the street Where pavement is shining wet, beneath my feet Then I turn around, with the sun shining on my face My shadow follows me, through this beautiful place My heart beats with strength, as I walk up the long hill Faith stronger than ever within me, to follow God’s will To shine in the coldest places that I may forever arrive To never give up on what I believe, to continue to strive You can do this too, for we all have a shadow But without learning from the sun, we wouldn’t know How to overcome the darkness, we all may endure The choice to love always reachable, in our hearts so pure!

Shadows we may not be able to shake off but as we grow in strength we can make them fade and be less obvious. Well written Heidi. Tom.
