Life

Life is a race,
and in other to keep pace
We need Gods grace
This will enable us face 
The thorns in our flesh.

Life sometimes brings
unpleasant and 
uncomfortable 
situations,but when we 
see these as life lessons 
we do not only surpass 
but elevate to a new level.

Life presents different 
seasons,but it is 
paramount we stay 
through to our 
purpose,despite snow or 
rain.

Even when there is thunder
We should not ponder
because beyond 
these situations.
I mean beyond these 
seasons,lies unending joy and everlasting happiness.
