Of Love and War

Daunted

By Colleen WaltersPublished about a year ago Updated about a year ago 1 min read

I spill an ocean

of tears as I sink, Defeat

rears its ugly head.

Then I hear Spirit.

“ Stay the course and keep the faith,

I can do all things.”

—-

Even soldiers need

Reminding of His presence

on the battlefield.

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6‬:‭12‬ ‭NKJV‬‬
