Learning Midst Trials

“Every struggle in my life has been a lesson and made me stronger."
                           Constance La France

Learning from qualms of heart’s discomfort Midst despair enveloping my soul I have my God* as the best Teacher Always ready to listen attentively While I cast to Him all my cares Constantly responsive with love and patience Leading me toward paths of righteousness Soothing my pain against afflictions brought by guilt Offering pardon and peace blessings Thus, my faith He strengthens Propelling me to be praise-filled of gratitude glow Empowered for blessed, blissful, serene service Asserting, “I can do all things through Christ.”*
*Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. November 22, 2022 3rd place, "WRITING CHALLENGE - 'V' Forms on Introspection" Sponsored by Constance La France; judged on 12/12/2022
