Psalm 27:1 NIV
The LORD is my light and my salvation — whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid?
Courage
It doesn’t
Always shout
Loud,
Sometimes
It’s found
In the moments
The hard questions
Come
And others
Gently remind
You
You don’t have
To carry
Those burden
Alone.
Courage
Can be found
In the moments
When the silence
Is broken
And the tears
Come
A quiet strength
That doesn’t shout
Yet speaks loud.
Courage
Isn’t found
In having
All the answers
But in admitting
You don’t,
But seeking
And growing
In our dear
Lord!

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

You shouldn't fear anyone as long as the Lord is with you. Nicely done Michelle.
