Summer Adventure
Summer is vacation time in my country
Blissfully welcomed with eagerness-delight…
Yet, season of more works* in the ministry
To serve the Lord gladly by His sovereign light.
Amidst engulfing oppressive summer heat
Spiritual retreat burns with revival fire
While scorching sun emits afflicting rays’ feat
Soul quenched with life’s Water never does retire.
Worship-bliss greets radiant firmament
Warm air keeps sweet fellowship-embers sparkling
Faith upholds mountain-trek prayer engagement
God brings me to peace-peak as to Him I cling.
*Proverbs 30:25 The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer.
