Through Thick and Thin

Exhaustion after a busy day
taking a breather somewhere;
this makes a big difference,
worthy of mention, an act of relaxation.

In spiritual acts of prayer,
words and actions compliment;
a good Christian witnessing,
a genuine gift of being a person.

It’s always a learning experience,
when problems or mistakes
conflict us to make decisions;
a challenging endeavor.

Those who are weak and strong,
reveal their values in actions;
some have discipline to wrestle 
with a good disposition, others haven’t.

Life must go on despite some odds,
one has to be strong, committed –
to every principle that life draws
in a busy, noisy world that we’re in.
