Now That We Are Here

Quote:  Give life your best shot for desires appear and disappear  
Love alone unties the Gordian knot

Now that we are here, let us do our very best 
with what we have been given, God will do the rest;
Since we have been called to live a life of authenticity 
we ought to shun duplicity and deceitful ways 
in order to make way for the best version of ourselves.
When we do this we can accept most anything that God 
sends our way. Sword in hand we fight the battles of life, 
like an Arc-angel of old. No support team is needed 
if you place your best efforts in the hands of the greatest 
Alchemist there ever was...
Love alone unties the knots of life so knit yourself 
to the belief that good things come to those who wait... 
Sit by the River Jordan and be baptized into His palpable Love  
Unloose the sandals of despair, step into hope and live.
