MY PARTNER IN THE MINISTRY

Championing freedom and liberty Lady of courage midst tenacity Stands along truth while defying deceit Upholding virtues with serenity. Transformed through love’s might from failure’s defeat Peace-filled lady stays grounded at her feet Joyously caring, sharing, reaching-out Showing miraculous conversion treat. Determined to win over carnal bout Valiant lady faces attacking doubt To conquer with prayer afflicting pain Extricating self from unbelief’s clout. Seeking forgiveness for soul’s guilty stain Repentant lady confesses heart-strain Since pardon drives her faith to do what’s best Ready in distributing blessings’ gain. That's my partner midst my spiritual quest Hope-propelled lady of stewardship zest Modelling divine nature by God's grace Smiting evil blight, surmounting sin‘s pest She's our mother in our orphanage days Helping us perform best in unique ways Triumphant midst pain showing her beauty Now, I am trained to take her wondrous place.

Lilith transformed by God's love, that is everything. Lilith's spiritual quest is a positive role model for young women. Proving anyone can turn to God's love. Great entry, Beata! xhugs
