Who Saved Me?

A lifetime of fear and doubts fill my mind with consistency,As I struggle to understand who it was that rescued me.Who provided me with spiritual nourishment in the day,I begged for mercy as I battled my demons along the way.

Enduring to The End

The challenges of mortal life can be both varied and demanding,Each child of God is different, each with their own understanding.No two lives are the same, for God gives to each man their own,Into the battle for the souls of men, into the foray we are thrown.
