Persistence
Persistence
Written: by Miracle Man

The memory of bad things have been made easier to endure,
When I’ve recognized that due to them some good was often born.
The character that I’ve demonstrated in coping,
was directly linked to my actions, not idly wishing.
Whatever success life has afforded me didn’t come through forcible entry,
but through prayerful pursuit, and thus entered through an open door.
My best achievements often long labored,
under God’s caption “Work In Process”.
And the one thing I will never be remembered for,
are things not started.
