PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I will be glad and rejoice in Thy mercy:  for Thou hast

considered my trouble; thou hast know my soul in

adversities . . .

---Psalm 31:7

At sixty-five, I shall say that the struggle

is worth the inconvenience and the trouble

unto the strengthening of Christian Faith,

and the lessening of the adversarial wraith,

Christ's consideration keeps me on the path

above and just out of reach of the accuser's wrath,

and of his giggling servants who relentlessly

call to my attention (from the past, and presently)

the failures, flaws, and faults of my sinful humanity

and cause me, if they can, to doubt---spiritually.

Into my life they have insidiously

insinuated themselves . . . but have not really intruded

upon that fellowship from which they are excluded

most certainly now, and always forever to be.

Starward
