Grateful am I as triumph reigns over distress since my heart has overcome bouts of depression-duress conquering frustration angsts that oppress along God’s grace, serving as steadfast fortress… believing that I can "Fall seven times and stand up eight" with godly success! With support system anchoring me with cheer blissful serenity has defied attacking fear driving my commitment with prayer-filled gear toward bouncing up and moving on, indeed very clear… midst the counsel, "If the wind will not serve, take the oars" I must hold dear! Though skeptical to vanquish lurking gloom my faith has chosen victory over mockery of doom knowing that "Nothing is impossible, the word itself says, "I'm possible!" to bloom not willing to face early death along inviting tomb as hope offers peace ever since I was in my Mom's womb! Now that I am in the ministry of reaching-out my spirit thanks the Lord Almighty, without any doubt with "Life is 10 percent what happens to me and 90 percent of how I react to it" route as thanksgiving prevails for miracles against unbelief-clout joyfully keeping on, encouraging others with "We can do it" shout! Praising my Saviour in grateful worship I keep on with my entrusted productive stewardship always vibrant, jubilant and triumphant in following His leadership upheld by inspirational quotes upon Scriptural truths of discipleship echoing “Workmanship marked by God’s partnership brings fulfilled fellowship.”*
