“I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.” Galatians 2:20 of the King James Bible Ascending upward faith-performance gain Behooved to stand against falsity stain Circumspect while walking midst harsh terrain Delighting in Christ’s blessings of grace reign Enabled for service midst labour’s pain Fervent, combatting grievous boredom bane Guided by God’s wisdom while goals do attain Hoisted for life-building upon truth’s cane I yearn to stay in the Lord’s domain Joyously sharing love He does sustain.

You reveal the challenges of the life Jesus calls all His disciples, for all times and climes. 1 Peter 1: 15-16, "Be ye holy as I [God} am holy." A sanctified life is a wonder to behold especially when youth coexist in this world, among temptations, yet find Triune encouragement. Thx Beata
