For you, I will storm castles.
For you, I will slay dragons.
For you, I will sail 1,000 ships.
I will be unlost too.
finally be home in me.
What is offered in faith by one person can be translated by the Holy Spirit into what the other person needs to hear and see. The space between them is holy ground, and the Holy Spirit uses that space in ways that not only translate, but transcend.
Brandy: For you, I will!
Tim, that means a ton! Thank you.
I am in the presence of a poet. That was, very simply, beautiful. Deep and touching. Thank you for sharing.
I am humbled and smiling. Thank you!
For those I love I will: look to do something special for them each day; listen to their stories; be by their side as they struggle; encourage them in their weakness; champion them in their strength; cheer their victories; hold them when they need it; love them with my eyes; protect their deepest secrets; tell them the truth; love the things they love; seek to understand their wants and needs; pursue them with love and devotion: This I will.
“Encourage, champion, cheer, hold, love, protect…” to all this, YES!
You will have to make poems a category on your blog! Looking forward to the next one!
