Mine Not Yours

MINE not YOURS

Did your day meet adversary in the face?  For I the LORD have proven myself to you, over a thousand times.
I’ve been with you in your corner, 
Your foot have not fallen or slipped, through it all I’ve been right there beside you.
Do you not understand the reward for finishing the race?
Do you not deserve rewards for staying the course?  When all around you others seem to be failing, 
Am I not with you?
If love equal to victory, then have I failed in my love to you?
If I’m powerful would I let you slip through the cracks?
Forces can try to bind you, but you can move
In all this I say na, for not once have you fallen or slipped from my sight.  
You reside in the eyes of the LORD, yours are forever and eternal
I repeat these are MY words not YOURS
