A bruised reed shall He not break, and the smoking flax shall He not quench . . .
---KJV Isaiah 42:3
To much I had aspired, in faithful, but proud, ambition;
but now can accomplish only the minimal
in order to maintain my soul
in some sort of thriving Christian condition.
Even in this: by Christ I am led at His direction
despite temptation, sin, and fallacious imprecision;
because in my weakness, His strength reveals its perfection.
